I can’t modify the ‘Continue reading…’ link of the_excerpt

Hi @janoChen:

Your theme (or a plugin) is overriding your filter. Try increasing the priority like this:

add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more',11);

Or like this:

add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more',20);

And if that doesn’t work try:

add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more',100);
