  • Hello!

    I have the same question than you ??
    I cannot managed to display the “Read more” button. I can “cut” my post to say which part is displayed on the main page and the rest displayed on the post page but the “Read more” is not shown. So you need to click on the post title to see the full post page but this is not user-friendly. I’m afraid my user will not think about clicking on the title.

    Thanks in advance for the help!! ??

    I have read this info:

    How to use Read More in Pages

    Please remember that the “Read More” tag is used only on the Home page which shows the latest posts. It does not work in “Pages”. If you want to turn it on in Pages too for showing a set of partial posts, use the following code inside the loop for the dynamic content:
    <?php
    global $more;
    $more = 0;
    ?>
    //The code must be inserted ahead of the call the_content, but AFTER the_post()

    <?php the_content(‘Continue Reading’); ?>

    I think this might be the reason why my “Read more” is not shown.. I have tried to add the code mentionned above but still issue persists..

    Anybody that could help on this topic?
    Because the issue persists… :/
    Thanks

    I had a similar issue, the text before the more tag was being displayed on the main post listings page, but no "continue reading" link, and you would have to click on the title to get to the single post and read all the details.

    If this is the case for you, it’s a very simple fix:
    login to your admin page and goto Appearance > Customise. In the Customise menu that appears on the left hand side, click on Archive Pages. Make sure that "Show Post Excerpt" is not checked

    THANK YOU so much! Honetly I would have never looked there!! And I was already looking at ways to do home-made button to insert into my articles… That would have been a nightmare to do this for every single post I have ??

    Thanks a lot !
