I understand that I can give any look or even a span class to the <read more …> in the “the_content()”.
But I have five languages and I don’t know where to change the behaviour of the <more>-tag globally for all posts.
I want to accomplish three things:
1. I want to add “…” behind the shortened text (not a link!),
then add an empty line of text beetween the text and the “MORE”-link
2. I like to add a CSS-class called “more_tag” to the “MORE”-link, to style it within my style.css
3. It should be still translateable when adding “MORE”-translations to the language files.
I guess I have to add a filter to my functions,php for the template but I don’t know how to do it right. (By the way: WHere is the original “more”-funcion defined?)
