Some questions about blocks

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi.
I need some informations:

1. I would have a views counter and a like counter instead of a replies counter in blocks (articles preview) is it possible?
2. Is it possible to have an “enter space” (carriage return) in blocks (article preview) instead of all in line article test. For example:
xxxxx.
kjdlòfnjsakdòfjaskdòfjaskdl

instead of default: xxxxx.kjdlòfnjsakdòfjaskdòfjaskdl
3. When I insert a youtube link in module: “text with title”, it doesn’t appear as text. I would have the same in blocks instead of the text of the link. Is it possible?
4. In articles I tried to use youtube link like: <iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/3BXDsVD6O10?rel=0&showinfo=0&#8243; frameborder=”0″ allow=”autoplay; encrypted-media” allowfullscreen></iframe>, as featured video link without informations or suggestions. But It didn’t work. How can I do?
5. Blocks (article preview) show a defined amount of the text of the article. Can I change this value customizing how many text should a single block show?
6. About images media. When I use featured images in articles and I click on it, images become bigger, and that’s what I want, but when I click on image inserted as media or in module “single image” it didn’t happen. Can you help me to have the same effect: click and enlarge image?
7. Is it possible to define in someway which article must have advertising and which is not?

Thank you.

Hi,

1. Block modules will display author name, date, comment count and reviews

Some also display excerpts and read more buttons. They do not display view counts, or like counters. That could only be done with module file modifications or maybe plugins.

2. I believe you are referring to the excerpts. You could add manual excerpts and insert line breaks as you wish

3. Once entered in a text element the video will be displayed instead of the actual link. You could use an inline text for example, and enter the video link in the description

The link will be displayed instead of the video embed. A title can be placed separately, there is an element for that

4. You must enter simple video links in the featured video field, not embeds

5. All modules have general options to control excerpt length

After the latest update they can be configured in the composer as well, individually

6. The modal window will work only on post images
https://forum.tagdiv.com/modal-window/
On pages you can choose from the available image elements, and their capabilities

7. The theme does not have such options at the moment. Once entered in the theme panel, the ads will be displayed on the whole website. You could use a plugin to have better control over the ads. The Adrotate plugin is mainly suggested by other theme users

Not able to insert inline image in a block

Hi,


@hari
The inline single image is a different element than a block. These are blocks
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
The inline single image is a multi-purpose element
https://www.screencast.com/t/LdQxMnMIbm4
So an inline image element cannot be inserted in a block element. Please correct me if needed and also provide more details if possible, for a better understanding.

In the earlier reply, I saw this

But not all modules have options to control excerpt length, i wonder why/ It would be really helpful if that could be done. Could you share some codes that can do this??

Hi,

@Hari
That is all modules that can display excerpts in the first place, not all do. Check how the predefined blocks look here
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
Only the flex blocks (more will be added) have an option to enable/disable excerpts
https://www.screencast.com/t/gWUaFWbNF
The other predefined blocks that are not supposed to display excerpts, will not display one unless some modifications. Similar topic here

Thanks
