morelink heads to a wrong url

OK, I might have misunderstood the purpose of the “morelink” shortcode, anyway, what I was after was the possibility of adding a “continue reading…” link at the bottom of the excerpt that could link to the full version of the post. The way the plugin is set, morelink links like this:
……/category/the category name. The way the link is set, is implemented into CatListDisplayer.php as follows:

//Close wrapper tag
		$this->lcp_output .= '</' . $tag . '>';
		if (!empty($this->params['morelink'])):
			$href = 'href="' . get_category_link($this->catlist->get_category_id()) . '"';

I personally think there’s not much of a clever use for this feature so I changed the code to my needs:

$this->lcp_output .= '</' . $tag . '>';
		if (!empty($this->params['morelink'])):
			$href = 'href="' . get_permalink($single->ID) . '"';
		$class = "";
		if (!empty($this->params['morelink_class'])):
			$class = 'class="' . $this->params['morelink_class'] . '" ';
		endif;
		$readmore = $this->params['morelink'];
		$this->lcp_output .= '<a ' . $href . ' ' . $class . ' >' . $readmore . '</a>';
		endif;
	}

This way when I hit the “continue reading” link I get to the article and not to a category page which doesn’t even exist.

I might add something like this to the plugin, but the post’s title links to the post itself. Still, I can add it as a parameter in case you want a “read more” link for each post.

Yes the title links to the relative post. When I wrote the previous msg I didn’t check the script with more than one post and I didn’t realize that it wouldn’t have worked that way. I, anyway, managed to get what I was after.. by adding a template file in my child folder/ list-category-posts/customlist.php
In the customlist.php I added as follows:

<?php
$lcp_display_output = '';
$lcp_display_output .= '<ul class="lcp_catlist">';
foreach ($this->catlist->get_categories_posts() as $single):
$lcp_display_output .= '<li>';
$lcp_display_output .= $this->get_post_title($single);
$lcp_display_output .= $this->get_thumbnail($single);
$lcp_display_output .= $this->get_excerpt($single, 'p', 'your p style');
$lcp_display_output .= '<a class="continua" href="'.get_permalink($single->ID).'"><em>Continua a leggere...</em></a>';
$lcp_display_output .= '</li>';
endforeach;
$lcp_display_output .= '</ul>';
$this->lcp_output = $lcp_display_output;

without the closing php code. So I was able to get a link to every single post and got some extra styling also.
I added the template=customlist” into the shortcode and that did it.
I still think that if you will provide an option like this directly from the shortcode.. it would be very nice.
Thx a lot for your kind answer and for the great plugin.

Thank you alby54 for your code. I was looking for it.
Just a curious ques, how can i style it. I saw the ‘class’ attributes but didn’t understand how to implement. How can i show the title in a bigger font or in a different color. Thanks in advance.

Edit: should i add the class In the style.css for my theme ?

You can modify the code and create a class for the title
$lcp_display_output .= '<h2 class="entry-title">' . $this->get_post_title($single) . '</h2>';
In this example you will need to style h2.entry-title with the attributes you want and that’s something you can add into your theme css sheet. Same thing can be done with paragraph, thumbnail and “more…”
