Excerpts in a Grid: How to display date of post and Read More link?

I am displaying my blog posts archive as a grid, which works great. 2 questions, though:
1. How do I display the date of the post beneath the title of the Excerpt?; and
2. How do I add a “Read More…” link to the end of every excerpt – say after 50 words or so?

    Hi Joseph

    Thanks for running Vantage Premium.

    I’d love to help here but it’s more of a custom development task. For small or big jobs we recommend http://codeable.io/.

    What you’d need to do is create a child theme, place /loops/loops-grid.php in your child theme and then add the date and additional items to that grid loop. You’d probably also have to introduce a small amount of additional CSS to handle this new data in the grid layout.

    Sorry I don’t have more.
