3 Dots (...) On Testimonial Slider - How To Remove Them?

SP Page Builder 3 years ago

On this page: https://risingoaks.marketaccess.ca/index.php?option=com_sppagebuilder&view=page&id=365&Itemid=1008

I use the Articles Scroller for the section towards the bottom of the page, in the orange block entitled : Play Champions

There are three dots (...) added to the end of the text. No matter what I try, I cannot get these to not be displayed.

Surely there must be a way to not include them, as they aren't in my content, so it seems that SPPB is adding them.

Thanks but you are referring to the Testimonials Scroller, and I'm talking about the Articles Scroller. Here's a video walkthrough of the issue I have:

Hi, Use this custom css

.sppb-addon-articles-carousel.testimonial .bx-pager.bx-default-pager {
    display: none !important;
    }

Add this css code inside the custom.css file. Note: Path towards custom CSS: Extensions>Templates>Styles> Click on your current default template name then choose Template Options. Then find custom CSS within the custom code. https://prnt.sc/pu705g https://prnt.sc/pu70zn In Extensions>Template> Template Options > Custom Code > Custom CSS please add this Thanks

Well, we are getting closer -- because we are now looking at dots... But I mean these 3 dots:

Which are not in the article content -- so I assume SPPB is adding them to the content....

It is these 3 dots I do not want shown.

Thank you for suggestion. This is difficult to do, since the ... isn't in the article text. I explain in more detail in this video:

I have searched the SPPageBuilder source, and I have confirmed that the extension is adding these 3 dots to my content. I strongly recommend this be a feature I can turn or or off in the interface, intsead of hard coded into the page renderer.

The file is com_sppagebuilder/addons/articles_scroller/site.php And the lines are:

Line 117 $output .= '<div class="sppb-articles-scroller-introtext">'. $intro_text .'...</div>';

Line 161 $output .= '<div class="sppb-articles-carousel-introtext">'. $intro_text .'...</div>';

Note the 3 dots being injected into the text, just before the div tag.

I deleted the 3 dots from the lines above, and now my content renders without the 3 dots.

Of course, that only lasts until the next time the extension is updated, so my solution is only a temproary one.

Could you please let your dev team know that this should either:

  1. be a feature I can toggle on or off within the page builder interface or
  2. change the code base to only include the 3 dots if the length of $output is greater than the value specified in the article scroller field Introtext characters limit"
