Pages Post Plugin and Read More Issue

  • I’m using the Pages Post plugin and am looking for a way to have the <!–more–> link appear and function on the page I’m assigning the post to. I understand that <!–more–> doesn’t work on a page but have found some code to add which should make it work buy inserting:

    <?php
    global $more;
    $more = 0;
    ?>

    and

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

    My question is does anyone know if this will work…also I’ve pasted a section of my page.php to see if it’s in the correct place.

    Thanks so much for any help…I’ve been working on this for the last week ??

    Here is the code:

    Thank you for the reply esmi. With the code added to the page.php, I’m not seeing the read more break on the page. To clarify:

    I created a blank page called stories in wordpress which created a menu link. I have several posts where I’m using Page Posts plugin to have them open in the Stories tab. Viewing them as main post, there is a break where the read more tag is inserted. Viewing them on the Stories tab displays the full length article without the break.

    I’m thinking wrong?

    Thanks again

    Is the code above in a custom page template that you’ve applied to the Stories page? Not sure how the Page Posts plugin might affect things…

    It’s not a custom template. When I created the Stories page I checked “use default template”

    So you’ve amended the default page template?
