    I am using a query loop on my blog page, with custom post excerpts. I added a snippet so the “Read More” buttons will show, but need to move them lower (they are too close to the last line of the excerpt). Additionally, I want to add a border as well. How do I achieve this?

    Hi there,

    if its a GB query loop block, and the text before the button is displayed using a Headline block.
    Then select the Headline block and add some Bottom Margin to it.

    let me know

    The excerpt is a GB query loop block, and the excerpt before the Read More button is a Headline block, but when I add 20 px to the bottom margin, all it does is push the next post further down. I cannot see the Read More button on the editing page. I only see it when I publish the post. Odd.

    Is there a specific reason why you are using a snippet instead of a buttons block with dynamic properties?

    Good question. I went back into my forum history and found that I added the snippet because I was using custom Excerpts in the post editor and the Read More Button wasn’t showing up. Here was the link she sent:

    The button block with dynamic was so much easier.
