Move Post Tags

Hi there,

How are the social icons/author box being added? Are you using a plugin that is automatically adding them to the page?

Most plugins that do that take your content and append the feature to the end of the content, so it will always show before one of our hooks which happen after the content.

If possible, you want to be able to manually place the author box using a hook, so you can tell it to display after the post tags.

Tom, the social icons are being added via a shortcode that includes the text "Don't Forget to Share This Post!" and the author box is the simple author box plugin.

If you can provide instructions, I can try to add the hook. I have used the elements extensively so I should be able to figure it out...

Are you able to add the simple author box via a shortcode as well?

That would be the best method.

Leo, yes I can add the author box via shortcode, which would be a lot of work (as I have +/- 150 blog posts), but it is still placed above the post tags. Any other suggestions?

Hi there,

what you would do is to add the shortcodes to your site using a Hook Element:

Simply add the Shortcodes to the Hook Content.
Select the after_content hook from the hook list.
Check execute Shortcodes
Set your Display Rules to Posts > All Posts.

David, I am trying to move the post tags below the content not move the author box below the content. Are you saying that if I create this hook element that the author box will move below the tags?

Yes, that is correct.

David, that worked perfectly. For anyone else using the same plugin and wanting the same placement, they will need to turn on the Manually insert the Simple Author Box option, otherwise, the box will be duplicated...

Thank You!!

Glad we could be of help.
