How to modify the 'Read More' link?

[henridelbosque]

Hello people,

My question is very simple: how can I modify the Read More link to look like this?

I am using Metro Pro and Eleven40 Pro.

Thank you 🙂

The Read More link in Magazine Pro has been modified to use the button link class. You can do the same in other themes by adding this function:

//* Modify the Genesis content limit read more link
add_filter( 'get_the_content_more_link', 'custom_read_more_link' );
function custom_read_more_link() {
	return '... <a class="button" href="' . get_permalink() . '">Continue Reading</a>';
}

Depending on how the buttons in your theme are styled, you may want to make modifications in your stylesheet, but that will at least get the button to show up.
