Removing the Play button for individual posts

Hi,

I’m looking for a way to remove the PLAY button on the Focus slider for posts that aren’t a video.

Examples here:

http://everythingvoice.co.uk/

The first post (image on the slider) is actually a written post, not a video post. The ability to change the play button to a ‘Read More’ button on an adhoc basis would be great.

Any way to do this?

    HI Richard

    This is a bit trickier than removing it globally. Have you considered heading to Appearance > Theme Settings and rather restricting your slider to a certain category, thereby removing posts that aren’t videos from your slider?

    Assign video posts a video category or tag and assign a different category to text posts.

    Then you can set a check for if post has a given category, give the post a .play class (this shows the play button) and if not, give the post a .text class (copy the .play class in the css and change the image url).

    Alternatively, you could setup a post type one for videos and one for text (this is really how the theme SHOULD be set up). This way it is as simple as assigning a post type rather than a category or tag.
