how to get More Button to show with Manual Excerpts

[irenedParticipant]

Hi,

I want the excerpts to have formatting. I read on the forums that the best way to do this is with manual excerpts. I am using this - i get paragraphs, but now the Read More button is gone.

I want the button back, and if I can, I'd like to change it to Continue Reading.
How's the best way to do this.

Anyone know how to get the more button back?

Ok, I followed the instructions. http://codex.wordpress.org/Excerpt

I now see the link on the blog page. But

a) how do I get the link to appear on the home page?
b) And how do I get it to have the CSS style that the theme had applied to it before I changed it to Manual Excerpt.

Thanks

(a) Adding the code snippet you referenced to Genesis  > Custom Code > Custom Functions
Should make the change site-wide.

(b) To change the anchor text of the link, make this alteration:

Where you see this:
> Read More...</a>

Change it to the text you want:
> Continue Reading...</a>
