How Do I Add Read More to Excerpt in WordPress?

Adding read more to an excerpt in WordPress is relatively easy. To do so, open the excerpt you want to add read more to in the WordPress editor, and locate the “read more” link located next to the excerpt’s title.

(If the excerpt does not have a title, WordPress will create one for you when you click on the “read more” link.).

To add read more to an excerpt, click on the “read more” link and WordPress will open a new dialog box. In the new dialog box, you will need to enter the text you want to appear as the excerpt’s read more text.

You can either type the text in yourself or use one of WordPress’s many built-in read more texts. Once you have entered the text, click on the “OK” button to save the change and return to the WordPress editor.
