front/home page issues

  • My spun theme is the older version 1.07
    It seems that people who visit my site haven’t grasped the concept that the circles are post and can be clicked on

    I would like to add the text “click me” when someone hover over the circle. Is this possible? Please help, thanks

    Are you sure the issue is to do with people unable to recognised links on-hover? The cursor changes from the default to a pointer on-hover.

    Yes, it does change colors and I think it’s obvious to click but for some people its not. 5 of my friends have expressed to me they didn’t realize they could click on the circles. Then I’ve been reviewing my site visits and people are going to the home page but few click on the circles/post. ??

    Sounds like you can just add a short description at the top of the page telling people that the circles are clickable.

    I feel as though that would ruin my design I’d rather add the text click me to clear up any confusion. I also added a brief description in my About Fatiyha Page that the circles are clickable

    It’s tricky because you’re going to have to compromise someone what ever you do.

    If you add a description at the top of the home page you’ll affect the simplicity of the design.

    If you add “click here” you’ll affect the quality of your content.

    Maybe you just need to add an icon to the circles on-hover? An icon that symbolises a link?
