1. We are taking feedback on the feature now. Currently there aren’t any options for working with it. You could apply styles to the div. These are the default styles.
body ul.geodir-category-list-view li .gd-list-item-right .geodir-field-post_content .gd-read-more {
display: none;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
padding: 30px 0 0 0;
background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, transparent, #FFF);
}
2. A task has been created to look at the ‘close’ feature but we are focused on getting V2 addons up to date, so, thanks for your patience as we get to that.
3. I cannot see that image, and don’t see any buttons in the archive item template. Try adding the button to the Archive Item template: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/page-design/
