Change "read more" into another text

Hello Tomas,

You can modify the “Read More” text using a function found on https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Customizing_the_Read_More#Modify_The_Read_More_Link_Text — good luck!

Hi.
Thanks. Should I add this function in functions.php? If so – where should I put it?

Tomas

Correct. Placing the code at the bottom would be fine.

So at the bottom of wp-includes/functions.php?

No. Your active theme’s functions.php file.

Each theme has its own functions file, but only the functions.php in the active Theme affects how your site publicly displays. If your theme already has a functions file, you can add code to it. If not, you can create a plain-text file named functions.php to add to your theme’s directory.

A Child Theme can have its own functions.php. This child functions file can be used to augment or replace the parent theme’s functions.

Ok. So if the themes functions.php look like this:

I should place the code at the bottom?

Tomas

Yes. Give it a whirl.

Hmm, i uploaded the theme file but didn’t get any reaction.
Take a look at: https://dccommunication.se/nyheter/
I want it to say “L?s mer” instead of “Read more”

Tomas

Is your theme from https://theme.co/x/ ?

If so, I recommend asking your question at the official support channel for X | The Theme, so the developers and support community can help you with your issue.

You will want to remove the functions.php addition I suggested and then check out the forum at https://theme.co/community/forums/group/support-center/ — sorry to redirect you, but they are better equipped to handle your theme’s questions.

Perfect. And thanks for your time:)
