Blog Element Excerpt Read More Text Duplication …

Greetings, I’m wanting to change the “Read More” text (on the link button) for select blog categories. Using the support forum I have tried adding the following code to my child theme functions.php file:

Begin Code:

function avf_modify_standard_post_content( $current_post ) {
if ( $current_post[‘post_format’] === ‘standard’ ) {
$categories = get_the_category( $current_post[‘ID’] );
$category_names = wp_list_pluck( $categories, ‘name’ );

if ( in_array( ‘Dharma Talks’, $category_names ) ) {
$read_more_text = __( ‘Listen/Read More’, ‘avia_framework’ );
} elseif ( in_array( ‘Music Recordings’, $category_names ) ) {
$read_more_text = __( ‘Listen to this’, ‘avia_framework’ );
} else {
$read_more_text = __( ‘Read more’, ‘avia_framework’ );
}

$current_post[‘content’] = $current_post[‘content’] .
‘<div class=”read-more-link”>‘ .
$read_more_text .
‘<span class=”more-link-arrow”></span></div>’;
}

return $current_post;
}
add_filter( ‘post-format-standard’, ‘avf_modify_standard_post_content’ );
End Code
This actually works, however, the result is on each blog post I now have two button links: the first is the original Read more and the second is one of the above. So two button links. How can I get this to function correctly.
