Category styling

Hi,
I've created a page using WP Show Posts for categories that looks really nice, but I can't use it due to missing schema tags.
Anyway, I'm trying to make the default category page look more presentable.
You can see the default page in the website URL, and my custom page can be accessed at /cat-diet/
How can I make the default look more like my custom page? Notice the spacing, padding, and so on.
I'd like for the read more button to display as well, but I can only make that work if I leave excerpts empty.
Thanks!
Making some progress. This code separates the articles better but also pushes them in on both sides making it uneven with the header.
.generate-columns-container:not(.masonry-container), .generate-columns-container:not(.masonry-container) .generate-columns {
padding: 10px;
}Hi there,
Have you played with the "Separating space" option in Customize > Layout > Container?
It should separate the posts for you.
Let me know :)
Yup, that did it!
Last thing to make it perfect, how can I make the read more button display? As mentioned, I can only get them to show if I remove the custom excerpt from posts but I really don't want to do that.
This should help: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/activating-read-custom-excerpt/
Perfect! Thanks a lot.
Adding the button has led me to another question. See /blog/ on the same website. Notice how the read more button isn't centered? If I make them 100% width, they end up touching. I just need to shift them to the right a little.
Hi there,
if you set the buttons width: 100%; then add this property: box-sizing: border-box;
Perfect! Thanks a lot, team.
Glad we could help :)
