Fine tuning

Hello cyrilruf,
for always exposing the full article you have to create a child-theme, i.e. with Child Theme Configurator and as it states in index.php you have to create a new content.php where you replace

    if (!is_singular()) {
        quicksand_entry_excerpt();
    } else { 
        quicksand_the_entry_content(); 
    }

with

quicksand_the_entry_content(); 

To remove the author, go into your customizer->theme options->content and deactivate author under meta

Last, for removing the search option go also to your customizer and add the following css:

.nav-search-wrapper, .nav-search-mobile-wrapper {
    display: none;
}

Hope that helps ??

Thank you so much for your prompt help !

I’m actually having difficulties with Child Theme configurator. It seems to me I did the right things.. I added template-parts/content.php to Child files, and edited it as above. but there is no change on my page https://leplatdujour.ch/blog/
Am I missing something ?

question 2 and 3 worked as a charm ! Thank you so much !!

Cyril.

Hello cyrilruf,
I’ve just checked it and it works fine for me. So once more:

– create the child-theme: quicksand-child
– create : quicksand-child/template-parts/content.php
– insert the following:

<!--template: content-->
<!-- post --> 
<article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class("card"); ?>>   
    <!--post thumbnail-->
    <?php quicksand_entry_thumbnail(); ?> 

    <!--post title-->
    <?php quicksand_entry_title(); ?>

    <!--post-meta--> 
    <?php quicksand_entry_meta(); ?>

    <!--post-content--> 
    <?php quicksand_the_entry_content(); ?>
    
    <!--post-tags-->
    <?php quicksand_entry_tags(); ?> 
    
    <!--author-bio-->
    <?php quicksand_author_biography(); ?> 
    
    <!--edit-link-->
    <?php quicksand_edit_post(); ?> 

</article><!-- .post-->

– double-check if your child-theme is activated
– add for example a simple css rule:

.blog {
    background: red;
}

If it doesn’t work, try another child-theme-plugin

That’s it ??

Great ! you are right, I was actually not activating the Child Theme. I thought it was done by default once setup.

Thanks for all !!
