Find Where Beans Renders the “Read More”
Lab: Customizing the “Read More” Link in Beans
Video Runtime: 15:37
Using the strategies you learned in the last episode, it’s time to find where Beans renders the “read more” HTML. Let’s use the string literal approach, where we’ll do a global search for that specific "Continue reading" string literal.
To help you more quickly find the code, I’ll share a couple of PhpStorm tips too.
Then we’ll talk through the actual source code including the Beans functions beans_open_markup, beans_close_markup, and beans_output.
In this episode, I mention that we are hooking into the 'the_content_more_link' filter, which comes out of WordPress. If you need to brush up on filters, actions, events, and hooks, check out this lab.
Hands off the keyboard. Web development starts by thinking first, then planning it out, and then coding it.
