A button for blog...

[Amanda Bears]

 So on our front page, we feature blogs. (we call journals). I am curious to know if it's possible to change the "Continue reading..." (that used to be read more...) into a button that says "Continue reading..."  on the front page? (For blogs). 

 Kind of like this:

I had to re-upload your image a link that they gave you was not working correctly.

<style>

a.xj_expandable {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #C1C1C1;
border-radius:35px 75px 30px 67px;
background:transparent url(http://api.ning.com:80/files/ja4bnyjg*NNiy3v*dJsXUd0Py6k*MSff4FHrotuuIicXCKh7lUvxTdHVv7gSSCKGtL*i--V1BMYDPcUVEFE6IeVLhAy1A0UD/orang.png)
}
</style>

Thank you George! The orange button will not work, (even yours) it truly loves the red one. LOL 

[George H. Compton IV]

that's strange the code I just gave you is working fine even on your Network. I took a snapshot so you can see.

[Amanda Bears]

 Well heck at least you can see it orange! LOL It looks great orange! LOVE it.. I cannot see it, I cleared cache, cookies and rebooted and it likes red LOL.

 Either way though I am truly happy, because at least you can see it is orange on your end! So this makes me smile! Thank you so much George! I super appreciate your help more than you know. =) HUGS!!!

see my computer loves the red LOL

Did you put in that last code I gave you? it only shows that way when I add the code with my editors.  No one else can see it Unless you put that code in

[Amanda Bears]

 I sure did, and now it doesn't show anything. See I told you I broke it here is the code I added:

<style>

a.xj_expandable {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #C1C1C1;
border-radius:35px 75px 30px 67px;
background:transparent url(http://api.ning.com:80/files/ja4bnyjg*NNiy3v*dJsXUd0Py6k*MSff4FHrotuuIicXCKh7lUvxTdHVv7gSSCKGtL*i--V1BMYDPcUVEFE6IeVLhAy1A0UD/orang.png)
}
</style>

I'm going to send it to you one more time but This time I will paste it as a plain a plane text maybe that will help.  This time just leave the code in and restart your browser and let me check it out Before you put the other code back :)

place the code in the bottom of your NC custom code box and remove the Read one first

<style>

a.xj_expandable {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #C1C1C1;
border-radius:35px 75px 30px 67px;
background:transparent url(http://api.ning.com:80/files/ja4bnyjg*NNiy3v*dJsXUd0Py6k*MSff4FHrotuuIicXCKh7lUvxTdHVv7gSSCKGtL*i--V1BMYDPcUVEFE6IeVLhAy1A0UD/orang.png)}

and remove the dashes at the end of the code.  I don't know why but this editor keeps adding them

[Amanda Bears]

Son of a cookie George it worked!! My word you have been so patient with me. I cannot thank you enough, I may not know CSS but I can educate you in infertility LOL (and herbs) if you ever need anything!!! I would love to repay you!!! Thank you it worked!! I see it! <3 

[George H. Compton IV]

You're welcome, sweetie.:D <3

Patients has never been one of my Virtues LOL but it was my pleasure helping :-)

I suppose what I should've done in the first place was just make you a css stylesheet.  Like the one I put together for friendly faces my network. then any time You needed anything I could just add it to the stylesheet that way it goes in right every time :-)

here's the one I use for my network check it out.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/k*GrVlvXTWLnVXvL6G196MQAbe6StkG*xC0iXBVGb1LAmZwrllYH1bBuvCROEagvPmbXSmtK4Iy0uetZn2ZwFsqtlelqXUxm/7style_george_compton.css"/>

[Amanda Bears]

 George- that is a lot of code! LOL. You do have some patience because I am a very difficult person LOL. 

[George H. Compton IV]

You haven't been difficult with me at all :-) you have a great night Amanda
