  Hi,

  I just changed the theme and all my posts are show in the home page. Yet, I just want to show some line of the posts, and have a “read more” button. Readers click on this button to open the page of the post they want to read.

  Couls you help me to set up it?

  Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  You can add ‘Read More Tag’ by following steps below:

  – Edit the post you want to shorten
  – Click on Insert Read More tag button (dotted line between two lines)
  – Drag —MORE— line from where you want to limit the post
  – Click on Update

  Also, you can try adding your custom read more message in HTML section.
  Refer this link for detailed info

  Hope this helps!

  It is all good. I always refresh the post before I respond, to try to avoid spamming the OP. But, there are times that doesn’t even work. :)
