hello to the forum,

thanks tom, wpsp pro together with gp pro is a really powerful combo. i am learning more every day!

i am sorry, if it is a quite simple or obvious question, but i did not find a way to deactivate the “read more” button. on some archives i would like to use only text. thanks for your help.

and perhaps a feature request, which (as i read) could be implemented in the next version: the title in the middle of the image on mouseover would be a great addition, i think.

you posted some custom css here link, but it does not work for me. (on a post image the title appears way below the image and on a custom post type image (portfolio) i cant see it at all. as i am developing locally, i cannot provide a link at this point, sorry!

thanks for your help!

Hi there,

You should just be able to leave the “Read more” option empty in the list settings, and it won’t display a button. Is that not working?

We’re working on an overlay feature 🙂

thanks tom,

great to hear, that the overlay feature is on your list!

and right, i can leave the “read more” option emtpy, than no button appears. but i would like to have a linkable text “read more” but just not in form of a button. is that achieveable?

thanks!

Ah gotcha.

Try this function:
```
add_filter( 'wpsp_read_more_output', 'tu_alter_read_more' );
function tu_alter_read_more() {
	printf( '<div class="wpsp-read-more"><a title="%1$s" href="%2$s">%3$s</a></div>',
		the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ),
		esc_url( get_permalink() ),
		'Read more'
	);
}
```

perfect tom,
thanks a lot, that´s it! now i am sure i can style the text to be displayed right after the excerpt, not in another paragraph, right?

do you have a time window, when approx. the next version of wpsp will be released? (regarding overlay feature 🙂

thanks again, these forums (gp/wpsp) are such a great archive of knowledge!

Ah, doing that may need a different method. Can you link me to the page as it is now possibly?

No time window now, but aiming for April.

Just waving my hand as someone else who came to the forums looking for an overlay option for post titles as well. 🙂

great to hear! (but your post means, that it is not implemented in the recent update, right?)
