Landing spot for Read More link
-
I use the “Read More” block for all of my posts. It works fine on the front page, displaying the initial excerpt and then allowing readers to click “Read More” in order to access that post’s individual page. What I want to change is WHERE the reader lands upon clicking the “Read More” link. Currently, if you click “Read More”, you’ll be taken to the proper post, but you’ll be transported all the way to the top of that post, requiring you to scroll down to get back to where you were. I’d prefer the destination to be the next line of text following the “Read More” block. (I definitely don’t want to “hide the teaser”, as I want the entirety of the post to appear on the post’s individual page.)
I’ve done some Googling, and it seems that there are plenty of solutions to do the reverse, i.e., ensure that the “Read More” link takes viewers to the top of the post. This suggests that my desired behavior is the default, but it doesn’t work that way for me, and I’d much prefer that the jump point land on the next line of text AFTER the block. Any ideas?
While I’m here, I’d also like the “Read More” link to appear in the search results. Currently, the search results only reveal the post’s excerpt, but they don’t include a “Read More” link, so it appears to readers that the post is shorter than it really is. It’s possible that this issue is theme-specific (I use the Astrid theme), but given that it’s related to use of “Read More”, I figured I’d ask.
Thanks,
