Thanks kronos – I forgot about activating the excerpts in the Genesis Theme Settings. I use the manual excerpt box and found some php code to automatically enable a “Read more…” link to the article in case anyone needed it:
// Add read more link after both manual excerpts and regular excerpts
add_filter('the_excerpt', 'add_manual_excerpt_read_more_link');
function add_manual_excerpt_read_more_link($output) {
global $post;
return substr($output,0,-5).'<br><a class="more-link readmorebtn" href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '">Read more...</a></p>';
}
Cheers!
