    Content is a widget. The page you are on there is the sign-in page. Can you let us know what you are trying to do with it? I had posted in other threads how to create the css for each page of the site and how to see that in inspect element. Noting that if you want to change CSS on a specific page, you have to add that CSS to the cloned theme you are using or to the custom theme you are using and not to the default theme stuff.

    We don't recommend modifying the source code as it will cause upgrade issues and be overwritten on upgrades. However, you are free to change the code if you wish. For anything you want to change, you need to look in the files for that module. So you would go in application/modules/blog and find the codes you want to change. For display stuff, it would be in the tpl files in either widgets or views. It all depends on exactly what you want changed. Please be more precise when posting if you need assistance as there are various places to view blogs such as the blog browse page or the blog view page or various widgets.

    I came back to this thread to check and I see the blog browse page in your screenshot so I'll go look for that.

    application/modules/blog/views/scripts/index/index.tpl lines 51-54

    <p class='blogs_browse_info_blurb'> <?php $readMore = ' ' . $this->translate('Read More') . '...';?> <?php echo $this->string()->truncate($this->string()->stripTags($item->body), 220, $this->htmlLink($item->getHref(), $readMore) ) ?> </p>

     

    Try changing the 220 to something else. I'm not on my local dev site to see but that should be the code for the blog browse page to show more text.
