    I am using the new Metro theme and I have put the Genesis Featured Post widget in the Home Bottom section.  For some reason the Read More link will not work.  It just shows [...].  I have changed it in the widget to read "Read More", but that doesn't do anything.  Am I missing something here?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Figured out the problem thanks to support.

    If any one else has this problem you need to use "Show Content" and then pick a character limit.  Do not choose "Excerpt" in the widget or it will not work.

    Hope that helps anyone else dealing with this issue.
