[Support request] Single Blog Post Title as a Link

[Toby]

I’d like the blog post title (single) to be a link (to that blog URL).

Is it possible to edit somewhere?

Hi there,

Not sure if I understand, you are wanting the single post title to link to the main blog page?

Let me know.

Hi Leo,

I want the single post H1 to link to that particular post.

Linking to the page you’re currently on isn’t typically recommended, but it’s possible with a child theme.

You’d need to copy the current content-single.php file from the parent theme into your child theme.

Then replace this:

if ( generate_show_title() ) {
    the_title( '<h1 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline">', '</h1>' );
}

With this:

if ( generate_show_title() ) {
    the_title( sprintf( '<h1 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline"><a href="%s" rel="bookmark">', esc_url( get_permalink() ) ), '</a></h1>' );
}
