To add a "Read More" button or link to your WordPress posts, you can follow these steps: 1. Open the WordPress post editor for the post where you want to add the "Read More" link. 2. Position your cursor where you want to add the "Read More" link. 3. Click the "Add Block" button (the plus sign in a circle) and select the "More" block from the "Layout Elements" section. Alternatively, you can type "/more" on a new line and press enter. 4. The "More" block will add a "Read More" link to your post where you placed your cursor. You can customize the link text by clicking on it and editing the text. 5. Preview your post to ensure the "Read More" link appears where you want it to. If you're using the Classic Editor in WordPress, the process is slightly different: 1. Open the WordPress post editor for the post where you want to add the "Read More" link. 2. Position your cursor where you want to add the "Read More" link. 3. Click the "Insert Read More tag" button (it looks like a dotted line with "More" written on it) in the toolbar above the editor. 4. The "Read More" link will be added to your post where you placed your cursor. You can customize the link text by clicking on it and editing the text. 5. Preview your post to ensure the "Read More" link appears where you want it to. Once you've added the "Read More" link, visitors to your website will be able to click on it to read the rest of the post, rather than having to scroll through the entire post on the main page.
