# Inline the "Read More" Button

 * Hi.
 * I would like to inline the “Read More” button with the text of the particular
   blogpost/preview on the mainpage.
 * I have looked into the <?php the_content(); ?> and <?php the_excerpt(); ?> but
   can not find a way. There are plugins for that but they do not work either.
 * Thank you for your help!

 * i found a way. i commented out addfilter(‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’); in the /wp-
   includes/default-filters.php file
 * so now it looks like //addfilter(‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’);
 * therefore the p tags are gone and don’t break the line.
