 * In content.php / content-featured.php you need to change this with a child theme:
 *     ```
       the_excerpt
       ```
   
 * To:
 *     ```
       the_content
       ```
   
 * And read more should work.

 * Which files should I put into the child theme folder apart from style.css. Do
   you mean both files content.php and content-featured.php? And then change them
   as you explained above?

 * Yup! Just put the content.php and content-featured.php files in the child theme,
   change them as you wish, and it will load from it instead.
 * Download the hueman sample child theme [here](https://github.com/AlxMedia/hueman-child/archive/master.zip).

 * I did that and it solved the read more problem; but now i’ve another one.
 * One of my posts is a gallery with images, and now, all the images appear on the
   main page.

 * Yea that is one of the reasons the theme uses the_excerpt instead of the_content
   for that area.
 * You can instead change back to the_excerpt and then add this for a read more 
   link, where you want it to show up in content.php:
 *     ```
       <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Read more</a>
       ```
   
 * Alternatively, make sure to always insert images in the post after the more tag.
 * Or you could force-hide images with css for the excerpt area:
 *     ```
       .entry.excerpt img { display: none; }
       ```

 * The Read more in Pages is still not working. Do I change also the words
    excerpt
   to content?
 * <?php if (ot_get_option(‘excerpt-length’) != ‘0’): ?>
    <div class=”entry excerpt”
   > <?php the_content(); ?>
