    Not sure if it is my theme or not, but is there supposed to be an ellipses at the abrupt end of an excerpt? If so, or if not, how do I go about adding one in? Thanks ??

    Not the most elegant solution, but one I am using in the interim. Tailored more to my page’s CSS but the gist is there.

    a.more-link:before {
  	content: "...";      /*manually add ellipses between 'Continue reading' and excerpt main text
  	padding-right: 5px;  /*adds space between ellipses and 'Continue reading'
        color: #000;         /*changes color of ellipses to match my <p> color - if <a> is different color
}

    Howdy @rtfrisk,

    That should work.

    You can also check the second code snippet here:

    I hope that helps!
