    Thank you for such a great theme! It is easy to manage and beautiful. Is there an easy way to add the standard “Read More” to the excerpts on the Home Page like the News excerpts have? The Featured content and the Events excerpts don’t have the “Read More” tag. Thank you!

    Hello @seanv-strat-com,

    To add the read more in featured content and event section you have to activate the child theme.

    Child theme references :
    https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    You can also create the child theme using the plugin:
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-child-theme-generator/

    After creating and activation the child theme in your child themes functions.php add below given code:

    Hope this helps.

    Best Regards!!

    Thank you for the quick reply and writing the functions.php code. It was easy to implement and works beautifully. I used the Child Theme Generator and it took about 10 minutes to complete. It should be noted for others following these instructions that creating and activating a child theme “uncustomizes” the theme options (resets them), so I had to add them back in the Theme Customizer (like header image, logo, featured content, etc.). I also chose to implement on a development sandbox so the above URL doesn’t reflect the update. The results are currently hosted at this temporary sub-domain: http://naples.v-strat.com/

    Thanks again and keep up the good work!
