    That's a great explanation, thanks Victor.

    Most theme developers allow you to install their themes on multiple sites/client sites without buying additional licences.

    As I will be providing support/fixes I guess this is allowed under the current genesis licence.

    This is tricky but can be done. I don't think there are any specific tutorials on how to do it though.

    You will need to replicate all .php and CSS codes for the front-page 3 widget area and apply them to the front-page 6 widget area codes. It will be a case of trial and error.

    Ah okay. The Academy Pro theme is littered with different 'background-color:' CSS 🙂

    I would suggest you start by commenting out (/* css */) any 'background-color:' CSS, for the main site areas, and changing the values to see what effect it has. This will lead you to target the changes you need to make to change the entire site color.

    Try this if your using the Display excerpts in Monochrome Pro:

    Add this code to functions.php

    // Read More Excerpt
    add_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'genesis_read_more_link' );
    function genesis_read_more_link() {
    
    	return '...<a class="more-link" href="' . get_permalink() . '">Continue Reading</a>';
    
    }

    And this to style.css (adjust as needed)

    .more-link {
    	display: block;
    	margin-top: 40px;
    	color: #fff;
    	width: 160px;
    }

    That should work 🙂

    The Monochrome Pro theme displays the 'Read more' button only if you set the content archives to 'Display Content' and 'Limit Content to' xxx characters.

    If you set it to display 'Entry excerpts' it will not show the button.

    You can use the code above to change the button text (but remove the extra ... in the return '... " from the above code.

    If you want a read more button for excerpts, it's a little more work adding a modified code to functions.php, and extra CSS to position the button.

    Have you tried adding this to functions.php?

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

    Are you trying to change the color on the front page? There is a similar set of codes in style-front.css for each area.

    .front-page-1::before {
    	background-color: #f5f5f5;
    	content: "";
    	height: 150%;
    	transform: skewY(-5deg);
    	position: absolute;
    	top: -240px;
    	width: 100%;
    	z-index: -1;
    }
    
    .front-page-1::after {
    	bottom: -140px;
    	background-color: #f5f5f5;
    	content: "";
    	height: 150%;
    	transform: skewY(-5deg);
    	position: absolute;
    	width: 100%;
    	z-index: -1;
    }

    You just need to change the 'background-color' to your own preference.

    Authority Pro is a child theme. I wouldn't create another child theme for a child theme. If you need to make changes, just edit the child theme files.
