I want to insert a button in a blog post. The button, when clicked will open some URL. Is this possible in Newspaper theme without a third party plugin?
Hello,
It is possible by using visual composer. You can use the call to action element and create your button: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69c6mNvu8qE
We saw some great buttons created with this element and it does not need any third party plugin as you requested.
You can create the button in a dummy page and then use the shorctode to add it to your post.
Thank you!
thanks!
I have one more query. I am trying to add a block 3 below the author box in post. I learned that this is possible with the visual composer and a shortcode. When i added the shortcode to the single.php file, the block 3 was added but it dislays 3 columns instead of 2 i.e 3 posts on 1 row instead of 2. How can i show 4 posts in 2 columns and 2 rows i.e each row should have 2 posts.
I checked this forum post where a user was facing a similar issue. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/number-of-columns-in-a-block/. My blog posts already has a sidebar. Thus i cannot use a 2/3 + 1/3 layout
Thanks!
Hi,
This will require a bit of customization in order to be positioned properly.
Please add this code in single.php:
<div class="custom-block3"> <?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column width="2/3"][td_block_3 limit="4"][/vc_column][/vc_row]')?></div>
And then use this css to fix the width:
.custom-block3 .td-pb-row .td-pb-span8{
width: 100%!important;
}Thank you!
thanks A lot! the code works
