Read More | Pretty Pictures Theme

[KBordonaro]

Hey There!

I followed the tutorials for displaying the "more" link without a tag. It works. Yay!

However, I'd like the link to show underneath the excerpt like in the Pretty Pictures Demo. I realize that this was manually done with the more tag, but is there a way to do this without a tag? What code would I enter to have it display on the next line?

Thanks so much for your help.

... BTW, this is the code I used in functions:

// Puts link in excerpts more tag
function new_excerpt_more($more) {
global $post;
return '<a class="moretag" href="'. get_permalink($post->ID) . '"> Read More...</a>';
}
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');

function child_theme_setup() {
// override parent theme's 'more' text for excerpts
remove_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'pictures_auto_excerpt_more' );
remove_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'pictures_custom_excerpt_more' );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'child_theme_setup' );

Try adding a new class named .moretag and set the display to block. It should place the link onto a new line.

I pasted the code below, just not sure how it will look when I hit reply to your post.
<code>
.moretag {

    display: block;

}
</code>

Thanks, Rick!

I'm not a coding wiz... I'm more like cheese whiz. 🙂

Just to clarify, should that code go in the functions or css style sheet?

Thanks,
