  Hello. I’d like to insert the text “Click here for more info” in the post date footer in featured posts using the Oxygen theme. Right now the footer is hidden, but if I can use it as text, I’d like to.

  Any suggestions?

  You can add text to the end of a link using CSS. Here is an example of adding text to the date line of featured posts in the Oxygen theme’s featured post slider:

  .featured-post .entry-date a {
  	padding-right: 7em;
  	margin-right: -7em;
  }
  
  .featured-post .entry-date a:after {
  	display: block;
  	content: " Click here for more info.";
  }

  Thanks for your response! I tried the suggested CSS, but it’s not doing quite what I want. It will add the text after the date, but the date still displays. If I use the CSS that removed the date, nothing displays. Here’s what I have to remove the date:

  .featured-post footer {
  display: none;
  }

  I’ve fiddled with it, but can’t get it to display the text instead of the date. Do you know what I’m doing wrong?
