my solution to reduce the spacing above the read more break is to make the paragraph text bottom-margin 0px or if you have an image above the read more break, make the bottom spacing 0.
you can tweak the size and colour of the READ MORE.
add the following:
.blog-post .blog-post-read-more a{
color: #000000;
display: inline;
padding: 5px 5px;
font-size: 15px;
}
to change color on hover, add:
.blog-post .blog-post-read-more a: hover{
color: #ff6600;
}
AND you can alter the text of READ MORE to what ever you want.
I made it CONTINUE READING
you do this by adding Jquery coding to each blog page, by entering it in the HEADER CODE under SEO settings on the each blog page, not each blog post, nor general settings.
this is my site check it out and see for yourself::

i did not write the Jquery message me and ill point you in the right direction...

Hey @whitemonkey It looks like you just need to set your site address. Open the editor and click Settings, then click Change next to Site Address. OR, you can click on the Domains tab from the dashboard, then click on your domain, set destination, and assign to one of your Weebly sites.

Hi! I want to customize the "read more" break for my blog posts but I am having trouble following your instructions. Where specifically should I add the:
.blog-post .blog-post-read-more a{
color: #000000;
display: inline;
padding: 5px 5px;
font-size: 15px;
}
Best,
Lauren

Thanks for your question
Sorry if my reply was difficult to follow which was a follow up thread to the original thread
in the other thread i pointed users to my own blog post that i did detailing the READ MORE BREAK
Heres my post:
Please be aware that it may not not work on all themes and also , once u r editting the html ur theme will be classed as CUSTOM and u wont get too much asistance from Weebly admin.
Hope this helps.

Not my realm, but I wonder if you can add <style> and </style> to the beginning and end of your code to make it an override? If it works, the full code can be added to Settings>SEO>Header and will keep the theme out of the dreaded "custom" land.

@ruste13 what part of the read more break don't you like?
All I do is change the wording and colour of the text.
If you are not familiar with adding code it is best not to do it. Cos if you miss one simple , or a ; it will bugger your site up.
Why not use standard pages for your posts?

Hi There, Thanks for the reply!
I could use standard pages for my posts but then how do you insert a read more break?
Wouldnt I just end up with an endless page?
Blog pages you can specify how many posts per page and you also have the options for catagories and archive which you dont have on a standard page.

@ruste13 you cannot add READ MORE BREAK to standard pages.
Yes its true, there are no options for adding categories on std pages.
What dont you like about the READ MORE BREAK? TO CHANGE The text, add that Jquery into the header box for the BLOG PAGE... SCROLL UP THIS FEED a bit.
