Is there a way to have more than 20 posts displayed on a blog on 7.1? plus other blog related questions

Hi there,

I could really do with some help, here's what I need to do:

• Is there a way to have more than 20 posts displayed on a blog on 7.1? I need infinite scrolling
• I also need for the thumbnails not to click through to the individual blog posts, but I still need a link on the excerpt text to link to an external website for each thumbnail
• Remove the Older Posts > pagination copy/link
• To add a border to the thumbnails. I have this working on my News blog but it doesn't work on this blog, which is basically a panel of logos that can be filtered by category.

So far for the click through problem, I have been told to use this code in a code block:

<style>
  article a {
    pointer-events: none;
}
</style>

Which works but it also disables the excerpt link and the Older Posts > link...

And I've been told to use this code for adding the border, which works fine on one blog but not on the other...

section.blog-image-wrapper a {
    border: 1px solid black;
    display: block;
}

I'd really appreciate some help with this and I'm willing to pay 🙂

Lauren

Q1. I think default is 30?

You can remove limit with this Lazy plugin

Q2. Can you share link to blog page?

Q3, Q4. Can you share link?

It's 20 for a main blog page and 30 for a summary blog - thanks for the link, hopefully it works ok for 7.1.

You can ask plugin author, before purchasing the plugin.

Q2, 3. What is access password? also, /config is url for site owner, I can't access

I also need for the thumbnails not to click through to the individual blog posts, but I still need a link on the excerpt text to link to an external website for each thumbnail

Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS

/* disable blog image link */
section.blog-image-wrapper {
    pointer-events: none;
}
/* disable blog title link */
.blog-title a {
    pointer-events: none;
}

Remove the Older Posts > pagination copy/link

.pagination-title-wrapper {
    display: none;
}

To add a border to the thumbnails. I have this working on my News blog but it doesn't work on this blog, which is basically a panel of logos that can be filtered by category.

Can you share link to this page?

News - https://asparagus-ocelot-cchc.squarespace.com/config/settings/contributors

If I add that code will it disable the news page too? I don't want it to, only the direct lender panel

Can you share link to direct lender panel page? /config is url for site owner, we can't access it.

See how to find page url.

Direct lender panel - https://asparagus-ocelot-cchc.squarespace.com/config/pages

You can access it by going to What We Offer on the main nav, clicking on Mortgages and then on the orange panel you can see View Our Full Panel

You want to create border + disable image links on this page only?

Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS

/* Mortgage Lender Panel */
body#collection-5ecce3922dd571390c9cdfaa {
	/* disable image link*/
  article.blog-item>div:first-child {
      pointer-events: none;
  }
	/* border */
  article.blog-item>div:first-child {
      border: 1px solid black;
  }
}

Thanks so much - that worked.
However, I've had to set a new version of that page now so that I can have all the logos on 1 page using 2 summary blocks - it's not ideal....

I've emailed the these guys for the plugin you suggested: https://www.squarewebsites.org/products/lazy-summaries

Once I hear back and they confirm that it will work for 7.1, and once I've implemented it, would you be able to come up with the code you supplied above for this new version? Please email me at lauren@laurenleader.studio if you require any payment for this.

Thank you and have a good weekend!
