Blog topic overlays “read more” button in Ess. grid

Hey sorry my last thread locked before I had a chance to get back on the computer.

My original question:

So I’m using essential grid to make a blog section on my home page, but the hover-over description is sometimes so long it blocks out the “read more” button

What can I do so that the hover description only shows a short summary with a … instead of the entire blog headline?

Scroll down about 2/3 to see the ess grid blogs

Your solution:

.eg-essential-preview-element-1 { width: 80%; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; }

This seem to work a little too well lol and cut almost all of the text out

So I changed the width to 100% and it looked better

But there is only 1 line of text, is there any way to allow it to go to a 2nd row of information? I think that would be a perfect medium from what the original problem was to a little too much for your suggested solution.

Thank you!

Hi,

I’m sorry but that is not possible due to css limitations.

The solution provided is the best one for what you are trying to achieve.

Thanks
