Read More Button in Responsive Theme
-
Hi Guys,
I’m trying to have the “Read More” option show up on my page, but it’s not working. I have no idea how to insert it manually, and I have chosen all the right options (main page set to home, etc). It’s just not happening.
Also, how could I change the button’s color?
Many thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is not a theme specific issue nor is it a CSS editing issue.
The setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
There is no global setting. If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/Custom Read More Message
To customize the message, simply add a space after
<!–more, and turn it into something like this… <!–more But wait, there’s more!–>
The guide is here https://en.support.wordpress.com/more-tag/view-all/#custom-read-more-messageThe read more tag can be inserted once only into any post to change the front page or main page for posts display from full post to an excerpt. The split in the text does not display to you in preview mode but it will be there after the post is published.
Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of only SOME active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410

It doesn’t work. It just shows the full post and it doesn’t cut where I delimit the Red More tag.

And this is published. You can see it right now. I put the tag under “Just click the tab below to get started.”
