Faq

Why I see like, views, share, rating only on single post, not archive or search?

Some themes dont apply WordPress’s default content filter on archive or search pages. That doesn’t allow any plugin to detect where the post is being shown. So the plugin can’t hook with the content and can’t add elements there. But on the single page, it’s always available to hook and add buttons, links and ratings.

How can I customize it?

1. Copy the templates folder to the theme you are using.
2. Rename the folder you copied to your theme to super-blog-pack.
3. Customize each files that you want.
4. Not required but recommended that you only keep the files that you need to customize in your theme folder. So other files gets loaded from the plugin itself.

It’s recommended that you create a child theme and use that. Because every time you update your theme, you’ll lose your custom edits.

I’m a theme developer, I want to integrate this to my theme

Just add your theme support by this code: add_theme_support('ts-super-blog-pack-advanced'). Now use the functions below to show different elements:

ts_sbp_meta() - To show post meta

ts_sbp_reviews() - For post review section

ts_sbp_related_posts() - For related posts

ts_sbp_share() - For post share links

Now customize templates for your theme with the guide described on the question above.

Detailed documentation with hooks and functions are coming soon!
