 * Hi, When I go to costumize, the posts look great, it just shows the main picture
   and then continue reading button (just like a want). When I’m on my blog the 
   continue reading botton is in the end of posts, you can see all of the without
   clicking that button and it takes me forever to get to the button on my blog.

 * Hi notyourlifestory,
 * Can you share a link to your site?
 * Are you using the “insert read more tag” button?
    If not, you can try it: you
   need to position the cursor in the middle of the text you want to “split” and
   press that button (located on top of your text editor)
 * Let me know if that helps!

 * [http://www.notyourlifestory.com](http://www.notyourlifestory.com) I do know 
   how to use read more. But I really want to figure out how to use that continue
   reading button that comes with my theme. Thank you

 * Hello.
 * You will need to use the “more” tag in your posts as suggested by bensita to 
   get the layout you like.
 * Add the more tag where you want the text to be split and you are done. The text
   above the more tag will appear on the home page and then you’ll get the continue
   reading button.
 * Check [this guide](http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-properly-use-the-more-tag-in-wordpress/)
   for more info on how to use the more tag.
