This plugin changes the ellipsis to a **Read More** link to the full post content. You can change the **Read More** link text to anything you wish from the **Read More Excerpt** submenu on the WordPress **Settings** menu. Also from the **Read More Excerpt** submenu, you can specify the excerpt word length( WordPress defaults to 55 words). Additionally, you can force the **Read More** link to show even when an excerpt is entered or when a read more tag is added to the content. This is turned on from the **Read More Excerpt** submenu with the **Show More Frequently** checkbox. The **Read More** link uses the class **read-more-link**, so you can stylize the link any way you wish. ## Zrzuty ekranu * [[ * Read More Excerpt Link Settings. * [[ * Read More Excerpt Link turns this… * [[ * To this! ## Instalacja #### For an automatic installation through WordPress: 1.

Click **Install Now**, then **Activate Plugin**. #### For manual installation via FTP: 1. Upload the **read-more-excerpt-link** folder to the **/wp-content/plugins/** directory. 2.

In the WordPress **Settings** menu, select the **Read More Excerpt** submenu, where you can modify the default **Read More** text link. ### How do I change the length of the excerpt? WordPress defaults to an excerpt length of 55 words. You can change this from the WordPress **Settings** menu, select the **Read More Excerpt** submenu where you can modify the excerpt word length. ### Why isn’t „Read More” showing on all pages? Normally, WordPress doesn’t show a read more ellipsis if an excerpt is entered as part of the post. Also, WordPress doesn’t show the read more ellipsis if a read more tag is placed in the content before the set excerpt legnth (defaults to 55 words). To change this, from the WordPress **Settings** menu, select the **Read More Excerpt** submenu where you can active the **Show More Frequently** option. This will force the **Read More** to show whenever there’s post content. ### How can I stylize the „Read More” link? Here’s a suggestion: ``` a.read-more-link { font-size: 0.9em; text-transform: uppercase; display: inline-block; white-space: nowrap; } a.read-more-link:before { content: "("; } a.read-more-link:after { content: ")"; } ``` ### Why isn’t the „Read More” showing at all? There’s also some over-zealous themes that re-write complete sections of WordPress code for no good reason. Elegant Themes is a good example of a theme company that makes highly bloated themes that re-write much of the WordPress normal operation. Basically, some themes totally ignore the perfectly working WordPress auto-excerpt and create their own. When themes do this, the **Read More Excerpt** plugin is ignored as the theme no longer calls the standard WordPress excerpt functions (which **Read More Excerpt** is hooked into). Other than making modifications to your theme, there’s nothing any plugin can do when themes don’t use the WordPress hooks and hard-code new functionality instead. ### It displays „Read More” but without a link? This is rare, but can happen when a theme is not strictly calling the get_the_excerpt() function but doing something with the result (like stripping HTML tags). If you know how to create a child of your template and make slight modifications to that child you can easily correct this. Start by looking at the theme’s archive.php file and following any get_template_part() calls from there. It’s best to not make changes directly to an off the shelf theme, as updates will override any changes you make. Creating a child theme is a better method of making changes to an off the shelf theme. ## Recenzje ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/cc9580348c564b21f26f8e7c0394d3709106d288c43b7271595ccba4eea166fa? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works great – even still under 5.2.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-great-even-still-under-5-2-1/)󠁿 [Mark Krieger](https://profiles.wordpress.org/markcanada/) 2019-06-02 Still running fine under 5.2.1 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a13dfa6f9ec679e75cd6d5ffa2bdedd35f0b30bd5fc8c19b87ae28d9904f8ddd? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-5177/)󠁿 [Madeline](https://profiles.wordpress.org/madelinesalocks/) 2018-06-27 Perfect plugin if you just need to change the length of excerpts or the „read more” text.
