How do I make this as default regardless of the block type? Regardless it shows just the author name. I’d like to put the “By” text before the author name.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please add this code in td_module.php file – http://screencast.com/t/SsDDPpGH so it will appear like on articles – http://screencast.com/t/dWSRaePom
. __td('By', TD_THEME_NAME) . ' '
Thanks!
Hi Alin!
Thanks so much! It worked for some, http://imgur.com/rbOlRIM. It doesn’t work for Blocks like Block 15 and (the sidebar widget of) Block 17 – the ones with small thumbnails. Sorry, we really need to show the author name on every post on the front page since we’ll be having different writers.
Maybe on future updates, you could add options which to show on the blocks like: categories, author, dates, excerpt, excerpt length, etc 🙂 Keep up the awesome work 🙂
Hi,
Please check all modules – http://screencast.com/t/5BzWIWiAXOm maybe the author is commented there as it should appear also on block 17(use module 4 and 8) – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-17/
On block 15 is used module mx4 and the author is not displayed there as it was not designed to display it – http://screencast.com/t/QSphMSyw You can use another block instead of block 15 or you have to customize it to display author – http://screencast.com/t/bHxGiq9jyP – http://screencast.com/t/6yXQUPel
Result: http://screencast.com/t/ZPhxPWGOYuL
The option from Post Settings to enable/disable author, date are also applied on blocks/modules – http://screencast.com/t/JhqxRVcw Also some modules display excerpt and some them don’t have it please check our demo – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-3/
There is an option for excerpt length for each module – http://screencast.com/t/TVG8Lcz3HK
Thanks!
Hello!
On Post Settings, I have enabled Author, Date and Excerpt, although that doesn’t control all the blocks because some were not designed to have the author, like you said 🙂 It might be better to put individual settings on Visual Composer for each Block Module for easier editing. Just a suggestion 🙂
Just having problems with Block 17. Module 4 and module 8 doesn’t have the comment out code, http://imgur.com/nww2Fx4.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thanks for suggestion! Please provide more details if you have an issue with excerpt as it should work on all modules, also provide an example, a link!
About the issue with block 17, please provide a link so we can take a look.
Thanks!
the website is bebgc.ph 🙂
Thanks!
Hi,
I have checked your site and the author is enabled also on block 17 – http://screencast.com/t/C7yEkxK0
Also if you have an excerpt problem, please provide more details what did you set(module) and it is not applied.
Thanks!
Ah, I’m very sorry. What I meant was Block 1. I got confused with the block number, really sorry about that. The block 1 that I’m using is located on the sidebar, which is titled “Multimedia”.
No problem with the excerpt, as we want to hide it. We just want to show the picture, category, blog title and author on the front page for now. 🙂
Hi,
Do you want to hide something on block 1 from sidebar on homepage? Please provide more details as I don’t know what you are trying to do.
Thanks!
I’d like to show the author name for block 1. The first post on block 1 is showing, but the rest is not.
Hi,
Like I said above please check all modules and see if the author code is commented there, you have to check module 6 – http://screencast.com/t/xZmb1yZq
Thanks!
Oh, sorry about that, I was still thinking of the same module 4 and 8 files. It’s showing now, thanks!
