@allusion:

The purpose of my post was to find a way to “not” put it in its own paragraph.

My wanting the word “more” on the same line as the last word in the post is mainly for aesthetic reasons. I like the that look. ( it also tightens up the text on my front page a bit as well – eliminates some whitespace)

As far as using CSS only, I’m not sure how I would get wordpress to add a separate style class or id to the word “more” or the last paragraph.

I’m also trying to stay inside the theme files as much as I can and not amend other wordpress program files to avoid getting all screwed up and missing or forgetting to change something during future updates.

@mdawaffe:

I tried the fix above after a “refresh” and it did not work.

So I played around with the code a bit using your suggested thought process and came up with this fix:

The original plugin code showed this:

$regex = "/(<p>)(.+)((<br />)(s*<a id=\"more-[d]+\"></a>)(<br />)s*)/s";

I changed it to this:

$regex = "/(<p>)(.+)(()(s*<a id=\"more-[d]+\"></a>)()s*)/s";

and it works just fine now.

Thanks for leading me in the right direction.

Yes, it is a neat plugin.

And, thanks for your help – that did the trick.

Now and can continue using the plugin and get the positioning that I want.

I appreciate the help mdawaffe

I just figured it out.

A plugin called moremoose is causing the problem .

Thanks anyways

I’m using “wordpress-2005-02-02”.

Sorry, I thought my question was clear by the visual example that I used, but I guess it was not.

I want the word “more” to be displayed immediately after the last word in the post – and not displayed on the next line underneath the post.

Somewhere , one of the wordpress files places a <br /> after the last word in the post and before the <a> tag that holds the more feature putting the word “more” on the next line under the post.

Example of my source code:


<div class="postcontent">
<p>Testing the inclusion of images in a post:<br />
<a href="https://www.rvadventure.ca/archives/
2004/12/22/test/#more-5">more &raquo;</a>
</p>
</div>


Notice the <br /> tag ? – It is not in the theme’s index.php file. Some other file puts it there – And I’m trying to figure out how to prevent the file from placing it there so that the word “more” appears on the same line after the word “post:” in the above example.

You sure know your way around the coding Kaf and Podz

Thanks again

I think I’ll use your first example with the span tag.

The word “more” will remain on the left hand side of the post.

Going outside of the theme directory to make that change is something that I would rather not do. That way I won’t have to keep track of changes outside the wp-content directory every time I upgrade a nightly.

Thanks for your help Kaf

While I think of it,

Is there also another way to rewrite it so that you can:

text-align: right

only the word “more” – so that the word “more ” appears at the bottom “right hand side” of a post.

Thanks

Personally, allowing attachments may pose a problem for some sites.

I travel a lot and many times I’m stuck using dial-up for my laptop. If someone wanted to screw around and send a me dozen emails all with large attachments through the contact form, it would tie up my internet dial-up connection for hours downloading all the bogus files, making it hard for me to check out my legitimate emails.

If this feature is added, there should be an option to turn it off.

Maybe too much trust but he’s gotta start somewhere – at least we have a plugin available.

I for one am really looking forward to using a plugin like this.

I’m sure over time, his plugin will only get better and more features will be added in (like an email address validator; return to the page that was being used prior to using contact form, etc) <— hey sounds like a wish list LOL

I’ve been trying for the past couple weeks to get a decent contact form working properlu on my site.

Looking forward to trying your plugin out as well.

Thanks for creating this kind of plugin.

Would this work ?


<?php
/*
Template Name: Contentform
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn" onLoad="document.emailform.text.focus();placeFocus()">

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class="post">

I had to put it with my wrapper div – but it worked great

thanks for the help everyone

@ shadow:

Sorry, I was typing a response as you were replying

I’ll check that out

Thanks

I checked out gemini and the gif example in that theme is not really what I’m looking for – that gif is very wide and covers the entire sidebar area.

I remember seeing somewhere, where a simple 1px gif file (the actual file is only 1px wide) is repeated somehow so that it goes all the way down to the footer – similar to the way a background gif is repeated downward – repeated x or y or something like that

I just don’t remember where I seen it, or how and where to include the code in my css file.
