[Theme: Less] Making read more link into a button

Before I begin, please forgive me..I don’t know a TON about php & css or html for that matter. But I’m learning.

I am using the theme Less which is a VERY simple theme and I’ve been customizing it and I ran into a small wall and that’s trying to turn the read more link into a button.

Now, I already have a class made for the button called .readmore but when I change the class to this, it makes all links buttons.

So this is the code where the “Read More” link is (index.php):

<!--/post-meta -->
    <div class="the-content">
        <?php the_content( 'Read More' ); ?>

<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
</div>

I’m not exactly sure what to do. I’m sure its really simple to fix.

Thanks in advance.
