Read More button on static front page?

Hi @philosophical,

The read more button is mainly useful for posts (rather than pages) where you display a list (archive) of posts with a summary and visitors can decide which one they want to read more of.

On your page you could do this using an ‘accordion’ where you get a title bar and when you click on it it expands to show the whole content. Search the plugins on www.ads-software.com for ideas.

Another way would be to use one of the page builders to insert a post archive into your page. I’ve used Beaver Builder for this and it’s really easy.

Let me know if that helps

Just create a link and style it like a button. Make the link href link to the page you want it to go to:

<a class="read-more-btn" href="/page-url">Read More ? </a>

and css:

.read-more-btn {     
    background-color: #fff;
    border-color: #ccc;
    color: #333;
    -moz-user-select: none;
    background-image: none;
    border: 1px solid transparent;
    border-radius: 4px;
    cursor: pointer;
    display: inline-block;
    font-size: 14px;
    font-weight: 400;
    line-height: 1.42857;
    margin-bottom: 0;
    padding: 6px 12px;
    text-align: center;
    touch-action: manipulation;
    vertical-align: middle;
    white-space: nowrap;
}
