    1. what do we need to edit in the child CSS to control the color / font attributes of the “read more” that appears after the excerpt on an Archive/Category page, such as this one: http://methodm.com/blog/?
    2. how can we reduce the spacing between entries on an Archive/Category page, such as this one: http://methodm.com/blog/?

    And, how can we change the string that appears. Currently, the string is: Read more →

    Hi,

    Please try the following in Quick CSS under Enfold–>General Styling to control the Read More link:

    .read-more-link a {
color:red !important;
font-family: Arial, Verdana !important;
}

    And the following to control the space between posts: 

    .template-blog .post_delimiter {
    margin: 0 0 20px 0;
    padding: 20px 0 0 0;
}

    Change the value 20 to fit your liking.

    Not sure what you mean by your second post, are you looking to change the actual text?

    Thanks,
    Rikard

    Much thanks.

    1) The color seems to work only sometimes. See, for examples:
    * http://methodm.com/blog/ (only the first “Read more →” appears in red.)
    * http://methodm.com/news/ – never appears in red
    * http://methodm.com/dita/ – some appear in red but other do no

    2) Yes. How can we change “Read more →” to, for example, “Click here for more”

    Will the change in the Quick CSS survive a theme upgrade – or should we, ideally, make the changes in the child theme CSS?

    Is it possible that the color for “Read more →” is dependent on if an excerpt was added manually to the post or if the <!–more–> tag was used in the post?

    It looks to us that having the <!–more–> tag in the content (even if there is an excerpt), changes the styling of the “Read more →” .

    Ideally, we don’t want to have to manually create/maintain an excerpt for each post.

    Hey!

    change read more text with a plugin like: https://poedit.net/wordpress or https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/.

    Yes, could be that this changes the color.

    Yes, you can use Quick CSS as well, as it will survive updates.

    Best regards,
    Andy
