 * Hi,
 * “Insert Read More Tag” doesn’t work on the page builder (columns). I can insert
   the tag but it won’t shorten my paragraph and add a READ MORE link.
 * Thanks,
    Valerie

 * Hi Valerie,
 * The Read More tag only works on posts in WordPress. It doesn’t work on pages 
   at all (and not the Page Builder either).
 * Hope that helps clarify things!
