Read More button – change language?

Hi Louise, are you running Edin on a self-hosted site?

Have you selected Swedish under Settings > General?

Since Edin’s Swedish theme translation is only 60% complete, it’s not already included in the Edin language folder. If you’d like to add more translations, you can do that here:

https://translate.wordpress.com/projects/wpcom/themes/edin/sv/default

That will benefit other users of Edin in Swedish.

You can also just download the current translation file from bottom left, where it says Export.

You’ll need to rename the file se_SE.mo and then follow the rest of the instructions here, changing references to Untitled to Edin, of course.

Let me know how it goes!

Thank you Kathryn ?? I checked out the links you suggested and I realize that stuff is a bit too complicated for me, I’m quite new to all this CSS and coding.

I wish there was a way to get rid of the “Read more” link all together! This would solve the problem of having to translate that bit?

Love the Edin theme, the grid page template is great – but this Read Me link forces me to choose another theme, sadly. (I’m running Edin on a self-hosted site and have selected Swedish under Settings – General).

– Thanks for trying to help me, though ??

I wish there was a way to get rid of the “Read more” link all together! This would solve the problem of having to translate that bit?

Sure, you can just hide Read More under the three grid images on the homepage, if you prefer.

.home .more-link {
 display: none;
}

Don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten whenever the theme is updated.

An easy way to add custom CSS is to install the Jetpack plugin and activate the Custom CSS module. You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.

As alternatives, you could either install a standalone custom CSS plugin, or create a child theme.

Let me know if you get stuck anywhere and I’d be glad to walk you through it.

Wow, thank you, Kathryn! ?? Edin now looks the way I want, superb!

I used the CSS module and made the changes you suggested. I was also bold enough to take a chance with the Read More link on the other pages, thinking they must be called .page ? It worked! Like this:

.page .more-link {
display: none;
}

I’m working with at child theme of Edin, created with the plugin One-Click Child Theme.
– Might be a chance I’ll learn this stuff one day ??

Excellent – glad that did the trick!

I’ll mark this thread as resolved, but if you do ever decide you’d to have the theme strings displayed in Swedish in the future, feel free to start a new thread and let me know where you’re getting stuck, I’d be glad to help.

Thank you Kathryn, excellent support! ??
