Move 'Read More' button was created by Alison Lloyd
Hi,'I recently installed K2 on a Joomla 3.6.5 website, and I'm using it for part of the site. I want to move the 'Read More' button in category list views so that it appears straight after the intro text, before the 'Published in' and 'Be the first to comment' links, not after.
I found what seems a useful discussion thread here: .
But I can't find which file to edit. In the template manager there is a mod_k2_content folder which I assume is for modules, whereas I want to change the k2 category. (I don't want to change the Joomla categories, only the K2). If I look in html sub-folder com_k2, all I get is:
<?php
/**
* @version 2.7.x
* @package K2
* @author JoomlaWorks www.joomlaworks.net
* @copyright Copyright (c) 2006 - 2016 JoomlaWorks Ltd. All rights reserved.
* @license GNU/GPL license: www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html
*/
// no direct access
defined('_JEXEC') or die;
?>
I've put a screenshot of the template manager at imgur.com/a/Ub4eX .
What do I do? Help would be much appreciated.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction Krikor.
Still not sure if we can access the components/com_k2/template folder from the Joomla back end interface, but for anyone else with this problem who may stumble across this post, I used Windows Explorer as an FTP client to copy the folder contents and that worked.
I've now made the changes I wanted, so I'm happy. But may I suggest to K2 for the future that having the 'Read More' button at the end of the introtext as a K2 default makes sense from a front-end user point of view.
Thanks again.
