Hello,

Can you please be more specific? In what element are you using the read more? Please send us a link where are you using it, or a screenshot.

Best regards!

Hello,

1-For your request you will have to edit theme files. Please go to file: \includes\view\blog\loop-index.php and add these lines:

$words_excerpt = explode(' ', get_the_excerpt() );
 $words_content = explode(' ', get_the_content() );

right after this line(21):
$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', apply_filters('the_content', $content ));
Now in the same file, find these lines:

<?php if(!is_single()): ?>
 <a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" class="btn-bt <?php echo esc_attr($cl_redata['overall_button_style'][0]) ?>"><span><?php _e('Read More', 'codeless') ?></span><i class="moon-arrow-right-5"></i></a>
<?php endif; ?>

And replace with these:

<?php if(!is_single() && (count($words_excerpt) < count($words_content))): ?>
 <a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" class="btn-bt <?php echo esc_attr($cl_redata['overall_button_style'][0]) ?>"><span><?php _e('Read More', 'codeless') ?></span><i class="moon-arrow-right-5"></i></a>
 <?php endif; ?>

Save file and refresh page. It will hide the “Read more..” from posts which have the excerpt text equal or larger than the content.
2- To justify text, please add this code into your custom css box:

.blog-article.alternate-style .content .text {
    text-align: justify;
}

Best regards!
