adding this will help you achieve this.
Hi
I inserted <!–more–> in “Enter Post Excerpt More Text” without success. Did I put in wrong place? homepage still shows fixed “Enter Post Excerpt Count” 30

I think you will have to modify the code of the excerpt.
This is how you can alter the excerpt length:
Excerpt Length
you can’t since the homepage and archive page use the_excerpt() and not the_content(). so ‘more’ tag cannot be utilize in excerpt().
@richie ks
but I think the excerpt length can be modified and read more can be added by editing the code?
Just noticed that the READ MORE boll show on “Blog” posts but NOT on “homepage” posts.
yes, it can be add. open lib/templates/feat-cat-meta-top and bottom.php and edit this line
<?php echo dez_get_custom_the_excerpt($archive_excerpt,”); ?>
to
<?php echo dez_get_custom_the_excerpt($archive_excerpt,’Read More’); ?>
but it won’t follow your own ‘more’ tag. it will follow the excerpt lenght from theme options.
@kintana do make a child theme when you implement the solution given by @richie ks
when I go to appearance/editor/templates/MesoColumn…..I wan not find “lib/templates/feat-cat-meta-top and bottom.php”
what am I missing?
you can’t via theme editor, must go thro ftp.
