magazine pro

[bandj]

magazine pro uses a jquery script to find time for each entry and move it inside the image link. What would I change if I wanted the category instead of the time? Or if not a category, a tag?

jQuery(function( $ ){

// add js body class
$('body').addClass('js');

// find time for each entry and move it inside the image link
$('.home-middle article, .home-top article').each(function(){
var $time = $(this).find('.entry-time');

$(this).find('a.alignleft, a.alignnone, a.alignright').append($time);

});

});

Changing Post Meta Data Overlaid on Images on Magazine Pro Theme

[bandj]

1. Change the js file to this and notice where you have to put "categories"

jQuery(function( $ ){

// add js body class
$('body').addClass('js');

// find time for each entry and move it inside the image link
$('.home-middle article, .home-top article').each(function(){
var $time = $(this).find('.entry-categories');

$(this).find('a.alignleft, a.alignnone, a.alignright').append($time);

});

});

2. In the featured post widget where it says show post title show post info, in the box below add this

[post_categories before=""]

mine now looks like this: [post_date] By [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_categories before=""]. The 2 quotes at the end eliminates the words "filed under". You can add text between the quotes.

3. In your css where you find

.js .content .home-middle a .entry-time,
.js .content .home-top a .entry-time

Add this:

.js .content .home-middle a .entry-categories,
.js .content .home-top a .entry-categories

Then add this in your css also for font color

.js .content .home-middle a .entry-categories a,
.js .content .home-top a .entry-categories a {
color: #fff;
}

We can thank Amelia Briscoe Technical Support Advocate for this as we went through a few emails to get this right.

Just a note that we don't normally hand out this amount of code in Support. Amelia happened to have dealt with this situation before, with a previous client.

Hi Andrea:
I can certainly understand why not.

However, for this topic - it is a feature of Magazine Pro itself - and not mere customization.

The date overlayed on featured posts is great.

But if your site is static-content driven and not date driven, that Magazine Pro feature is a problem. For static content, overlaying the category makes a lot more sense.

And now that we have the code - it's all good!
