    Hi there,
    Is it possible to customize which web stories are embedded using the plugin on a blog post? As of now, it is only time bound or by title and I want to customize which stories show up so that it is relevant to the blog post page the user is on.
    Thank you

  • Hi @testingwp23,

    There is! You can do this by inserting the Web Stories block on your post and choosing the Selected Stories option: https://jmp.sh/zAzRavH+/selected-stories.png.

    You can then choose the visual layout you’d like to use: https://jmp.sh/qnmacLB+/layout-style.png.

    And finally, you can click the Select Stories button: https://jmp.sh/kVsuULh+/select-stories.png to see a full list of all your Web Stories and select which ones you want to display. You can choose up to 20 Stories.

    Let me know if you have any other questions!

    Got it, thank you! I was still using the Classic Editor so I wasn’t able to see the new format for Web Stories.

    The other question I have now is there a way to remove the “View All Stories” link from the plugin? When I click on it it doesn’t actually show me an aggregate of stories. It redirects to another page of mine.

    Can you share an example link with the View All Stories button redirecting? I can take a look and see if I can help you fix. ??

    If you want to remove it completely, though, you can add this to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:

    
    .web-stories-list__archive-link {
    	display: none !important;
    }
    

    Note that this will remove the Display All Stories link everywhere that it would typically appear on your site.

    I also noticed the cover photos do not appear for some reason.

    Thank you!

    Thanks for sharing this info!

    Clicking View All Stories takes me to https://www.thedimplelife.com/web-stories/, which is actually the correct URL where your stories archive should be displaying. This URL will use your theme’s default archive template. The default archive template is typically pretty generic – a header, a footer, and some space for content in the middle – but it looks like yours may be much more detailed and includes code to display all of your site’s posts in a particular layout.

    If you do want to use the Web Stories archive as a page that displays all of your stories, you would want to talk to a developer about updating your default archive template to allow it to properly display stories. Unfortunately I can’t be of more help on this as it’s all dependent on your theme’s code.

    I also noticed the cover photos do not appear for some reason.

    It looks like there’s some code missing there, but I’m not sure why it’s missing. Can you please share your Site Health information privately via this form so I can dig a bit deeper? Thanks!

    In the block editor on the right hand side there’s a checkbox to disable that link.

    Thank you I just submitted a form but was unable to run Site Health. Hopefully it is still possible to look into the issue!

    Also thank you Pascal. I was able to disable that link with the check box!

    Thanks, @testingwp23! I do see in the source code of your site that jpibfi appears to be being inserted on the image code for Web Stories, which is what’s causing your images not to load correctly. It looks like that code is coming from one of a few different plugins: https://www.google.com/search?q=jpibfi. I’d recommend deactivating the appropriate plugin and seeing if that fixes the issue.

    That said, it sounds like you’re not able to access your plugins screen in WordPress right now, so you won’t be able to deactivate there. If you’re working with a developer, you can check to see if they can help, or you can try posting to the general www.remarpro.com support forums.

    @testingwp23 As we haven’t received a response, I’ll mark this as resolved. Feel free to open a new support topic if you continue to encounter issues, or reopen this topic and we’d be happy to assist. Thank you!
