Blissful meta data and signature issues

[krystyn]

My test site is here. I've added a signature using the Genesis Simple Hooks plugin, using the genesis_after_post_content Hook. However, it looks funny since it comes after the post meta data. I'm not sure how to move the meta data or move the signature above it, so I would really appreciate suggestions

While I am not using a signature, I am using an ad right after the post, but before the post meta.

The area is a widget... so you would either have to register a widget and put your signature in, or alter the code below to suit your needs.

/** Add after post ad section */
add_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'blissful_after_post_signature', 9 ); 
function blissful_after_post_signature() {
    if ( is_single() ) {
    echo '<div class="after-post-signature">';
	
	echo '</div><!-- end .after-post-signature -->';
	}
}

Is that what you used to register your widget? I have to go back and remember how to do that.

Also, what is the 9 for at the end of the first line?

With the code you have there, it looks like it would have the same impact as using the simple hooks that I did? I did it right in the genesis_after_post_content as well.

Oops... I went and modified the code... no need to register a widget.... 🙂 Sorry... when I did that, I should have edited the text too.

Okay, php is my nemesis....where do I put the actual image for the signature code? Between the two echo lines?

[Nile Flores]

The number 9 gives importance to it and puts it above the post meta.

The code goes in your child theme's functions.php

No. Sorry, where do I actually put the link to the image that I want to be the signature? Within that code? I know the code itself goes in functions.php.

Sorry....it's been a long day.

This is what I currently have in the simple hook:

<?php if (is_single()) { ?>
<img src="http://69.195.124.59/~domestq0/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/nicole.png" /></a>
<?php } ?>

Unfortunately, it still goes beneath the social sharing and the linkwithin, but hopefully, there is another fix for that?

For anybody looking:

/** Add after post ad section */
add_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'blissful_after_post_signature', 9 ); 
function blissful_after_post_signature() {
    if ( is_single() ) {
 echo '<div class="after-post-signature">';
echo '<p><img src="URL OF IMAGE" />'; '</p>';  	
	echo '</div><!-- end .after-post-signature -->';
	}
}

change the 9 to an 8 or 7 or whatever puts it where you want.

Thanks! I only tried bigger numbers, not smaller!

[krystyn]

Hmmm...tried 1-9 and it still won't move it. It's probably because of something in the plugins, but I hate to edit that because it often gets written-over in updates.

Are your social sharing icons a plugin?

You would have to go and edit the plugin's files. Not a good idea especially if you are using plugins that are constantly being updated.

You would have to put them at a lower number or use a manual method with a hook. I don't use a social share plugin anymore and have buttons in mine using hooks and have them placed just under the post meta. ( Example : look at my single posts on blondish.net )

If you are using Digg Digg, you can do this with the manual option... again, you would put the code together and use a hook.

LinkWithin... See if they have a manual code option. If they do not.... try YARRP ( Yet Another Related Post Plugin)... there is a manual option described in that plugin.

@blondishnet can you point me in the right direction for putting the social buttons together? I know where to grab the code for the buttons, but I'm not sure how to put it together.
