 * We’re using your great plugin to display excerpts on the home page and I notice
   we’re getting both “continue reading” with an arrow and “read more”, which is
   coming from the plugin settings. But, the “continue reading” text is not a link.
   How do I get rid of the “continue reading” text?

 * I have this same problem.

 * Playing with the excerpt doesn’t work. I can fill in 10 or 1000, the excerpt 
   remains the same, same amount of characters…

 * Try to uncheck the “Display Readmore” option. If you still see the “continue 
   reading” text without link, I guess it come from your theme
