Replace Read More Text With Image in Blogger

Monday 25 March 20132comments

Few years back, Blogger platform users including myself are eagerly waiting for the highly needed 'Read More' function ("Expandable Post Summaries" or the "Jump Break"). 

The 'Read More' feature  simply creates a snippet of your blog post and this function helps you increase the page views when your site visitor decides and became more interested in reading the full post.

You can manually insert the 'Read More' function in  simple blog templates while most Ad-ready magazine types templates or the premium templates uses the automatic script code for the 'Read More' summary.

The automatic 'Read More' script offers short summary intro with specific length. It can be modified but it will automatically affect the rest of post. A thumbnail will be included if the said post/article also includes an image file.

Aside from the common standard 'Read More' text link, we can stylish it up by replacing it with an image to improved the appearance of your blog.

Sample Live Demo -- I used this trick in musicsharp website

1. Log-in to your Blogger Account.
2. Go to your Dashboard > Template > Backup/Restore >
   Back Up you Template!

3. Go to your Dashboard > Template > Edit HTML >

4. Expand the Widget Template and look for 'Read More' text using (Click 'CTRL and F').

5. Replace  "Read More" text with the code below



6. Preview then save the template.

By the way, if you are not interested in using any image. You can just change the  "Read More" text with any phrase/words you like. [Ex. Full Article, Full Story and others...]
