I have a two level question relating to Bedford template:

  • I want to change the 'read more' text on blog excerpts. I tried using the following custom CSS (as per other answers relating to other templates) but no luck. Bedford has a 'data-read-more' tag that I don't seem to be able to target. 
a.entry-more-link span {
  visibility: hidden;
  font-size: 0;
}
a.entry-more-link span:before {
  content: "Listen";
  visibility: visible;
  font-size: 13px;
}
a.entry-more-link span:after {
  visibility: visible;
}
  • If I have more than one blog on my site, is there a way to target a change like this to a specific blog? Is it the same as targeting other pages using the relevant collection id?

Thanks,

David

Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS 

.entry-more-link a {
  visibility: hidden;
  font-size: 0;
}
.entry-more-link a:before {
  content: "Listen";
  visibility: visible;
  font-size: 20px;
}
.entry-more-link a:after {
  visibility: visible;
  font-size: 20px;
}

If you want to change on One Page, add to Page Settings > Advanced > Header 

<style>
  .entry-more-link a {
  visibility: hidden;
  font-size: 0;
}
.entry-more-link a:before {
  content: "Listen";
  visibility: visible;
  font-size: 20px;
}
.entry-more-link a:after {
  visibility: visible;
  font-size: 20px;
}
</style>
