Custom post type archive template question

[mel62]

I have created a custom post type and added 'genesis-cpt-archives-settings' support in functions.php and all is great, but there is no 'read more' link on the archive page so a visitor has to know to click on the header link of an entry.

It shows this […] but there is nothing to click on and I really prefer for it to say [Read More].

How can I add that read more link?

Actually, since no one has responded yet, I would also like to have the option of showing the full content rather than an excerpt.

Are both of these possible?

Providing you are trying to override theme settings and have CPT display differently than regular post types...

Add to functions - replace CPT with your post type (3 occurrences in following snippet

add_action( 'genesis_before', 'CPT_conditional_actions' );
function CPT_conditional_actions() {
    if( is_archive() && 'CPT' == get_post_type() ) {
        //put your actions here
        remove_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );
        add_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'the_content' );
 
    }
 
}

For the conditional tag, you could also use

is_post_type_archive('your-post-type');

Swap out your-post-type with the name of your CPT
