How Do I Add a Read More Link in WordPress?

If you want to add a read more link in WordPress, you can use either the standard WordPress link shortcode syntax or the WordPress embeddable shortcode. The embeddable shortcode is more versatile, but requires a bit more setup.

To use the standard shortcode syntax, you would add the following code to your post or page:

[readmore title=”This is the title of the read more link” url=”http://www.example.com/more-info/” caption=”This is the caption for the read more link”]

To use the embeddable shortcode, you would add the following code to your post or page:

This is the caption for the read more link

The embeddable shortcode will automatically generate the read more link’s title and caption for you, so you don’t have to worry about it.
