    Hi,

    I’m trying to use Tainacan to show out collection of old and vintage postcards.

    What I’m trying to do is to customise ITEM page a bit. I’m using Blocksy theme and Gutenberg with Tainacan plugin plus all the extra Tainacan plugins that I could install.

    I would like to change some elements of the single ITEM page (is it really a single post?) but I’m a bit new with Tainacan.

    Screenshot can be found here: https://ibb.co/DKQHRPZ

    I uploaded a screenshot of the page, and I would like to see where can I:

    1) Hide or remove author and date of the post (1)
    2) Change or remove that caption DOCUMENT on all ITEM pages (2)
    3) Translate or remove or hide that caption METADATA (3)

    Tnx and all the best from Croatia 🙂

    Vedran

    Hi there,

    This page will help you: https://tainacan.github.io/tainacan-wiki/#/dev/custom-templates

    > is it really a single post?

    Yes it is. Each Collection is a post type and each item is a post of this post type. So you can create a generic template for all items in all collections (see wiki page above) or a specific template for items of one specific collection.

    When you are using a regular theme without support to Tainacan, all item information will be inserted via the the_content filter, so it’s a bit harder to customize. But if you want, I suggest that you create a custom template of your own and use the “Tainacan Interface” themes’s template as a model to build yours -> https://github.com/tainacan/tainacan-theme/blob/develop/src/tainacan/single-items.php

    I hope that helps!

    Hi @vserbu!

    You can actually do this via Customizer. Go to “Customizer” -> “Item from <your-collection-name>” -> “Enable section labels”. From there you can disable or customize how the section labels will be displayed.

    Please let me now if you found this settings and if it worked, I’m working on improving the plugin compatibility with Blocksy 😉

    Also @vserbu, keep an eye on the next version to be released in a few days (0.18, the RC is already out). It will improve how the Document and Attachments are displayed in this page, and Tainacan Support for Blocky was developed with it in mind.

    Thank you so much on all the answers. Currantly, I have an installation of Tainacan locally on one windows machine on my workplace – I’m testing it there for for the said postcard collection. I’ll check everything next week and give you feedback. Again, thanx on very quick response.

    Great! Everything works, I even found where I can enable POST NAVIGATION (next, previous item) and that should have had been my next question, but already found it. Tainacan rules!

    Until my next question, best regards and greetings from Croatia

    Good to know @vserbu!

    I’ll be marking this as solved, then. We are curious about your collection, BTW. If you ever want to make it public in our showcase (https://tainacan.org/en/tainacan-showcase/), just reach us. We also suggest that if you want to have further conversation, try contacting us in our new Discourse Forum:

    https://tainacan.discourse.group/

    It is a much better place to know each other and discuss issues, bugs and features 😉

    Greetings from Brazil,
    Mateus.

    Of course @wetah . For now I’m just trying to put it together locally on one Windows machine, to see how it works, but when it is going to be published, I would be more than glad to make it public in your showcase. It is a collection of old postcards (cca 1700 postcards) from Dubrovnik region in Croatia which was donated to States Archives in Dubrovnik few days ago, and we have to put it online within a year so expect a fully functional web page with complete collection and metadata sorted out in a few months.
