Blog Archive - Excerpt Read More does not display if manual excerpts are short
3 replies · Started by Charlie on October 7, 2019
Hi
I have a site using GP and GP Premium
Client advised that post archive excerpts were not displaying Read More link.
I checked and Customizer excerpts length is set to 55 words.
When excerpt is automatic, Read More link displays after the excerpt.
If a short manual excerpt is used (less than 55 words), Read More is missing.
Admittedly, I have not tried a manual excerpt length greater than 55 words.
I advised client to remove manual excerpts for now.
Hi there,
Read more is removed when the custom excerpt is used by default.
This should help:

Let me know :)
Thanks for pointing me in that direction, Leo.
I will give that a go.
No problem :)
