How to shorten posts

    Hello!

    I’m very new and am just setting up my forum here. I’m noticing that wp is posting the entire posts which is great except in the case of a long post. Does anyone know how I might either be able to alter how much of a post is visible on the front end (as in viewer needs to click to read the rest of the post after seeing a the first bit on front page), or perhaps “back to the top” type buttons?

    If you’d like to see my forum it’s at:

    Any suggestions are appreciated!

    Many thanks!

  • Try using the <!-more--> tag in your posts (that’s the button in the Visual Editor that looks like two pages separated by a dotted line) where you want the post display to finish.

    This Codex page might give you a little more insight into how the tag works
