[Resolved] remove dots on article in archive page

[Andre]

Hi,

How To Change or Remove The Dots […] At The End Of Excerpts :
https://charlesclement.ch/catalogue/category/catalogue-raisonne/

I tried this in functions.php of the Generatepress child theme, but it doesn’t work

function new_excerpt_more( $more ) {
return ” ;
}
add_filter(‘excerpt_more’, ‘new_excerpt_more’);

Thanks for your help,
Best regards, andre

In the meantime, I used another method by filling in the excerpt from the article.
But if a solution exists, I’m interested 🙂

I would say that it would be interesting to add its choice in the Generatepress theme customization under layout -> blog -> Archives.

For […] or …, or nothing.

Hi Andre,

Can you try this PHP solution?

remove_filter( 'generate_excerpt_more_output', 'generate_blog_read_more_button' );
add_filter( 'generate_excerpt_more_output', 'generate_blog_read_more_button_without_dots' );

function generate_blog_read_more_button_without_dots() {
	$settings = wp_parse_args(
		get_option( 'generate_blog_settings', array() ),
		generate_blog_get_defaults()
	);

	if ( ! $settings['read_more_button'] ) {
		return $output;
	}

	return sprintf(
		'<p class="read-more-container"><a title="%1$s" class="read-more button" href="%2$s" aria-label="%4$s">%3$s</a></p>',
		the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ),
		esc_url( get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) . apply_filters( 'generate_more_jump', '#more-' . get_the_ID() ) ),
		wp_kses_post( $settings['read_more'] ),
		sprintf(
			/* translators: Aria-label describing the read more button */
			_x( 'More on %s', 'more on post title', 'gp-premium' ),
			the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' )
		),
	);
}
