Yes its possible with jQuery
May i know your theme name and link
Thanks! It is Pressplay and the link is http://www.plumpub.com/kaimen
are you using the “read more” tag on an excerpt or based on <!--more-->?
There are filters that will let you modify these rather than relying on jQuery.
Hi Steve,
Yes, just using the regular old read more tag…Thanks!
what does that mean? How are you getting a read more tag?
are you using the_excerpt() or inserting <!–more–> in your content or manually adding a link?
Sorry. I am inserting <!–more–> in the content.

Add something like this to your theme’s functions.php file
function modify_read_more_link() {
return '<a class="more-link" href="' . get_permalink() . '" target=_blank>Your Read More Link Text</a>';
}
add_filter( 'the_content_more_link', 'modify_read_more_link' );
see https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More
If you are not working in a child theme, it might be a good idea to create one first.
Thank you so much. I will try it and let you know.
Debbie
