Hello There is a question when I editing a post page need to ask. How to insert a read more link at the end of Excerpt? Please see my attachment to get the best understanding what I mean.
Hello Art Yes, Eroll just helps me to modify and edit the theme code about '' read more.'' The difficulty is I do not know how to make it display on my post page's Excerpt? I want to add '' read more.'' to the Excerpt and insert a link so that visitor clicks it then will display a full post page. The Kalium theme seems can't insert a link to the Excerpt. Hope you can teach me how to do that?
As I see it is the same thing, but anyway I'll need to login into your site as I cannot because I am being redirected to a 404 page, please add the credentials or method of logging into your site again.
Hello Arlind Thanks for helping me. I don't understand the code. Your Screenshot is what I want to create for my site. Would you please give me more details how to create that from the first step to the last step. I need a step by step guild.
Hello Arlind Thanks for your help! The code that you edit for site seems lost after my blog update to Kalium Theme 2.1.6 I check my site to see that "Read More" is disappeared. How to prevent this happen again in the next Update? Please see my attachment I trying to edit functions .php file was failed. I really don't know which functions .php file should be edited? Also, Please tell me the Custom CSS that I edited is correct or wrong? To get the best understanding, I need a Screenshot of each step.
Sorry but only Arlind can help you on this. This is a customization question and support doesn't offer customization services as we wrote on our support homepage. But when Arlind comes back you can ask him again if he can help you again for this question.
If you're looking for professional help in this matter, there's always someone available for such tasks on the WP Kraken or Envato Studio. Pricing and timeline are always straightforward there and that's the main reason for recommending those services.

Hi Hugo,
I see you have an older ticket assigned to Eroll, and it appears that he helped you, is that not helping anymore?

Hi Hugo,
I have corrected the previous code in functions.php you have added to this version"
And now read more link appears on your site:

To give it a little styling you can add CSS with this selector:
.post-details .read-more { font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 20px; }Hello Arlind
Thanks for helping me.
I don't understand the code. Your Screenshot is what I want to create for my site.
Would you please give me more details how to create that from the first step to the last step. I need a step by step guild.

Hi Hugo,
Sure, here are the steps I have followed to add the excerpt in your blog posts:
1. Go to Appearance > Editor and click functions.php file to edit
2. Copy the following code (it is already applied on your site for the moment) and paste in the end of functions.php then save the file:
// Read more link function new_excerpt_more( $more ) { echo '<a class="read-more" href="'. get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) . '">' . __('Read More', 'kalium') . '</a>'; } add_action( 'kalium_blog_loop_post_details', 'new_excerpt_more', 21 );3. Go to Custom CSS and in the end of editor add this CSS:/* Read more excerpt styling */ .post-details .read-more { font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 20px; } .blog-posts .post-item .post-details .post-excerpt { margin-bottom: 10px; }And click Save changes. The results are:(view large version)
