Hide Read More Link In Blogger Static Pages

Read-More-Button The Read More link tutorial that I previously shared summarizes all posts to a specified length but then it even appears on Blogger’s newly introduced Static Pages where it should not be. I was scratching my head on how to solve this problem when Sam of Plenty Of E-books came to my rescue. He provided me with a code that shortens posts and also doesn’t let the read more link or button to appear on static pages. So lets replace our old code with this more updated one.

Note:- If you have never implemented this trick before then kindly read this tutorial first –> Add Read More Link To Your Posts

 

 

How To Summarize Posts and Hide Read More Link in Static Pages?

  1. Go To Blogger > Design > Edit HTML
  2. Backup your template
  3. Search for the old read more code which looks like this,

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != "item"'>
<a expr:href='data:post.url'>

<div style="text-align: right;">Read More ->></div></a>
</b:if>

 

or something similar to this. Simply replace it with this one,

<!--READ-MORE-STARTS-->
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;static_page&quot;'><br/>
<b:else/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;index&quot;'><br/>
<a expr:href='data:post.url'><div style='text-align: right;'>
<img height='33px' src='IMAGE URL OF READ MORE BUTTON' width='120px'/></div>
</a>
</b:if>
</b:if>
<!--READ-MORE-STOPS-->

 

kindly replace IMAGE URL OF READ MORE BUTTON with Image link of your read more button. If you don’t have a button then grab one from some of the buttons I designed in past,

  2. Thank You Mohammad for giving the credit :)

    But I think you missed the Date Hack which you told can happen with this code only...

    @Jeet
    I would suggest to use the default blogger comment form because of some following reasons:

    1. Disqus comments loads slow as so your blog too get slow.

    2. Its not SEO friendly I think. I don't know much about SEO but I read it somewhere.

    3. I even tried to install it but wasn't successful and didn't wanted much of a headache :p

    Thank You

    Anytime pal and for comment system stick to Blogger. Simply the best from every angle. What looks good doesn't always taste good. Hope you get me :D

    @Sam
    For you I believe I would have to write some SEO related posts and I was wondering I should.

    @Myworld

    Jump break could be an alternative I agree dude.
