Hi, Is there a way to add "continue reading" links automatically when using the_excerpt? I'd prefer not to use the_content and more-tags, since the desired excerpts may not start the post itself. When using the_excerpt, it's a bit of a nuisance to have to enter a "continue reading" link manually.
cheers
No need, found the wordpress excerpt editor plugin to do it for me.
<?php global $more; $more = false; ?>
<?php the_content('Continue Reading'); ?>
<?php $more = true; ?>
with cat : conferences
<?php global $more; $more = false;
query_posts('category_name=conferences');
the_content('Continue Reading');
//this last line is only necessary if you have more posts
//to show in your template and want to show their full bodies,
//not excerpts
$more = true; ?>
