Hi - I'm trying to use the wpv-post-excerpt shortcode within a page that is outputting custom post types. Because these are not blog posts, I'd like to change the text that is being displayed after the excerpt from "Read More" to something else (something like "Learn More") but I don't see an attribute for that shortcode to do that. Is this possible? Example page is: hidden link
Thanks!
I've discovered that the text on the "Read More" button is actually being controlled by a setting in the GeneratePress Premium Blog Module, which I have turned on. Unfortunately, this is the second issue I've run into with this module conflicting or superseding settings with Toolset. The other was whether Featured Images are displayed on Post Archives. If I change the text to say "Learn More" it appears not only for my custom post type archives, but for all blog archives - which I wouldn't want. Regular blog post archives should still say "Read More." Is there any workaround for this that you could recommend? Thanks so much for your help.
Thanks for your reply, Shane. I think we were both replying at the same time! I tried the 'more' attribute and it did keep the "Read More" button from the GeneratePress Blog Module from being displayed, so that's great. But I have two other issues now: the first is that, although "Learn More" is now displayed at the end of the excerpt, it is not a link and so does not take you anywhere and the other is that I was hoping to have it as a button for a call to action. Is this possible? Would I have to add a button of my own under the excerpt with a link? Thanks again for your help.
