 * I’m using the the theme TheProfessional and I am unsure how to remove the “Read
   More” button from the 3 features articles on the home page. So how do I remove
   these buttons?
 * The link for the website is [HERE](http://fastprobateloans.com/).

 * Hi,
    The class readmore is on the list page as well, so you need to only hide
   these on the home page.
 * The three posts on the homepage are in a class called service.
 * In the style.css try ** adding at the end**!
 *     ```
       /* Custom Style Home Readmore */
       div.service a.readmore {
          display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * **Note:**
    The only issue is that these are post excerpts, so if any of these
   are more than the number of excerpt words the full post cannot be read.
 * HTH

 * Hi David,
 * Thank you for the reply but unfortunately that didn’t work. It didn’t do anything.
   Anything else I could do to remove it?
 * By the way, the the theme has three other stylesheets to enable different colors
   on the theme. Would that info make a difference?
 * Thanks,
    David

 * In style.css find the following:
 *     ```
       #content a.readmore {
           background: url("http://64.19.142.12/fastprobateloans.com/wp-content/themes/TheProfessional/images/readmore.png") no-repeat scroll right bottom transparent;
       ```
   
 * and remove the whole background: url(…)…; line
 * That removes the graphic button. Are you trying to remove the text link as well?

 * Thanks for the response, rafaminu.
 * Yes, I want to also remove the text.

 * The answer from rafaminu will remove the button from the post list on the archive
   page you had earlier as well.
 * I see you have removed that page and if you are not using a blog page or category
   list then just use.
 *     ```
       #content a.readmore {
       display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * But it will remove the ‘read more’ on all posts and lists, so you will not be
   able to have a blog page.
 * HTH

 * That’s a bit more complicated, just a bit.
    What I don’t understand is why would
   you want to remove a link to the original post?
 * Anyway, in your home page php file look for the lines that contain:
    `read more`
   and remove them.

 * iPT2gGeec (David),
    The style I posted first is being reset by another style,
   all you need to do is make it !important and it should work, it is showing in
   FireBug with a strikethrough.
 *     ```
       /* Custom Style Home Readmore */
       div.service a.readmore {
          display: none !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * The `!important` will stop an un-important style from changing it!
 * HTH
