Textlink into a button - event excerpt

Site URL: https://www.tpgsportsevents.com/events

Hi,

I'm trying to add a view event button to my events summary block. I have set up a textlink in the event excerpt, how can I change this to  a button?

Thanks very much!

If button same link as title, you can add this code into Design > Custom CSS

.eventlist-title .eventlist-title-link:after {
    content: "Read More";
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translateX(-50%);
    top: -50%;
    background-color: black;
    max-height: 50px;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    padding: 10px 20px;
    border-radius: 10px;
    color: white;
    font-size: 16px;
}

If different, please enable text link in excerpt, then we can give code to turn text link to button easier

Hi, thanks for getting back to me.

I have created a text link in the excerpt, what is the code for the button?

Thanks

Tuanphan - love to follow up on this, I tried pasting in the code but it resulted in the button floating over my excerpt text.

Try this new code

.eventlist-title .eventlist-title-link:after {
    content: "Read More";
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translateX(-50%);
    background-color: black;
    max-height: 50px;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    padding: 10px 20px;
    border-radius: 10px;
    color: white;
    font-size: 16px;
}

Hi @tuanphan 🙂

I could not see how to turn the excerpt into a link to the event (for now its just the title and graphic which is causing some confusion). Do you know if this is possible?

I also tried using the code above to make a button for "event info" but it fails if the except is too long and also in mobile view.

Yes. If excerpt too long, it will caused problem. You can reduce excerpt length

or add link manually on excerpt.

How can I add the link manually?

I guess you can edit Event Excerpt >> Do this?
