    In the archive page, I would like each listing to feature a button that links to the listing details page. At the moment, only the title links. How can we do this?

    Hi sagraphics,

    Thanks for your post. The image and title should link to the details listing page. Not just title and could you check?

    Yes, but it’s not clear that you should click on it. I’m using it as a directory of tutors, and the details page needs to feature a gallery, so I have used the logo upload for the profile picture, as I don’t want the profile picture in the gallery.

    Hello,

    You can use a GD Post Badge element to create a link to %%post_url%% then add Custom CSS to make it a button.

    GD Post Badge examples -> https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/featured-listings/
    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/faq/common-examples/#gd_post_badge

    You can also use the GD Post Content element to do that. Set it for 0 words display and set the link text as you like.

    Edit the archive item template to add that

    I’ve tried using [gd_post_content key=”post_content” read_more=”VIEW PROFILE”] but it’s not showing the read more link?

    You’re right, it seems to require 1 word at least before it will display.

    Also, there doesn’t seem to be a way to use GD Post Badge to accomplish this like:

    

    
[gd_post_badge key="post_category" condition="is_not_empty" badge="View all the details" bg_color="#ffffff" txt_color="#ff0080" alignment="right" css_class="my-read-more-link"]

    

    I will flag your topic for the developers to let us know how to make a simple read more link that links to the listing.

    Hello sagraphics,
    

    Add two more parameters limit & max_height to display read more link.
    

    Ex:
    

    [gd_post_content key='post_content' read_more='VIEW PROFILE' limit='60' max_height='120']

    For a badge, try this one:
    

    

    
[gd_post_badge key="post_title" condition="is_not_empty" badge="Read More" link="%%post_url%%" bg_color="#ffffff" txt_color="#433aed" alignment="right"]
