Article - Read More - button

[Volkl]

Hi, how can I change the button-text “read more” of an article to “Mehr lesen”?

Hi Kora,

Thanks for reaching out.

To change the text of the “Read More” button to “Mehr lessen”, you need to add this code in your child theme functions.php.

function x_excerpt_string( $more ) {

    $stack = x_get_stack();

    if ( $stack == 'integrity' ) {
      return ' ... <div><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" class="more-link">' . __( 'Mehr lesen', '__x__' ) . '</a></div>';
    } else if ( $stack == 'renew' ) {
      return ' ... <a href="' . get_permalink() . '" class="more-link">' . __( 'Mehr lesen', '__x__' ) . '</a>';
    } else if ( $stack == 'icon' ) {
      return ' ...';
    } else if ( $stack == 'ethos' ) {
      return ' ...';
    }

  }
  add_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'x_excerpt_string' );

// Content More String
// =============================================================================
  function x_content_string( $more ) {

    return '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '" class="more-link">' . __( 'Mehr lesen', '__x__' ) . '</a>';

  }
  add_filter( 'the_content_more_link', 'x_content_string' );

Please note that custom development is outside the scope of our support. Issues that might arise from the use of custom code and further enhancements should be directed to a third-party developer.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.
