    Please post a link to the site. The demo doesn't show a read more button.

    It looks like you have some customizations going on using sccss. First find the following CSS block at line 496 in style.css:

    button, input[type="button"], input[type="reset"], input[type="submit"], .button, .more-link

    Remove the comma after button and .more-link.

    button, input[type="button"], input[type="reset"], input[type="submit"], .button

    Next, you are loading sccss_style-css. This is not delivered functionality with Monochrome Pro. You have a CSS block for .button, .more-link in whatever code is loading that CSS. You'll have to figure out where that code is coming from yourself, but when you find it, remove the , .more-link from that block as well.
