How to get an edit post or edit page link
Feb 29Some themes do not include an ‘edit post’ or ‘edit page’ link!
It’s hard to believe that such a simple addition can be forgotten and it’s so useful!
A small snippet of code rectifies the problem easily. Here’s how you do it …
- Login and go to Admin>presentation>theme editor
- Open file ‘Single.php’ Single post file in the list
- You can enter the edit link wherever you think best
- example; find the line
<?php the_content('<p>Read the rest of this entry »</p>'); ?>
and add beneath it
<?php edit_post_link('(Edit Post)', '', ''); ?>
- Save the page and refresh a full blog post page to see your edit link under the post
- Repeat the same process for a page by editing the ‘Page template’ file in the same way
