Try this:
[display-posts include_excerpt=”true” excerpt_more=”READ MORE” excerpt_more_link=”true”]
That didn’t work at all…?
I am using this:
[display-posts image_size=”medium” wrapper=”div” wrapper_class=”display-posts-listing grid” meta_key=”_thumbnail_id” posts_per_page=”3″]
and I am trying to add buttons under the text that say READ MORE.
I tried adding your suggested code on its own, and also tried adding it to my code:
[display-posts image_size=”medium” wrapper=”div” wrapper_class=”display-posts-listing grid” meta_key=”_thumbnail_id” posts_per_page=”3″ include_excerpt=”true” excerpt_more=”READ MORE” excerpt_more_link=”true”]
to no avail.
The excerpt_more parameter will only work if there’s an excerpt included. You would need to add include_excerpt=”true” to the shortcode.
Unfortunately this plugin does not have support for a read more link without an excerpt provided.
If you are comfortable with code, you could use the output filter to extend Display Posts and add this functionality to your site.
