    Hi folks!

    I'd like to create some white space on my post loop.  Currently, the "read more" link is inline with the copy.

    I'd like to add a couple of line breaks between the end post copy and the "Read More" button.

    And, I would like the button to display left justified.

    For example:

    Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

    Here's my stab at it. Add/edit your style.css for this:
    a.more-link, a.more-link:hover {
    display: block;
    margin: 20px 0 0;
    width: 130px;
    text-align: center;
    }

    This will line it up below the featured image--if you want it under the text, try changing the margin to 20px 0 0 175px instead. Hope that gives you a starting point, at least.


    I do the best I can with what I’ve got. (say hey on twitter)
