   Hi there.
   I wish to display on the front page only the first X words of the posts content (with the images and links, so the_excerpt won't help. and without using the <more> tag).

   Until some time ago there was a good plugin for this called "post teaser":
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-teaser/
   but it doesn't work for WP2.6 (and the developer didn't reply to comments in his blog asking for a 2.6 compatible version).

   so I am asking if someone here know of a simple solution on how to split the content of the blog.

   I plan to use this for a blog aggregator I recently built for dance bloggers on: http://www.dancebloggers.com/
   (right now I am using the_excerpt, but it entails lack of consistent format, so I am looking for a better solution)

   Thanks allot for the reading and willingness to help,
   Tal

   I found the solution using:

   the_content_rss('', FALSE, '', 100,2)

   (from the Hebrew support group of wordpress. Cheers to them!)

   Hi danceplaza

   (sorry for taking so long to reply, I wasn't around the forum for a while)

   I ended up not using the plugin but instead choose to play with the index.php file of the theme and replaced the_content template-tag with:
   the_content_rss('', FALSE, '', 100,2)

   Hope that helped,

   Tal

   the_content_rss('', FALSE, '', 100,2) works, but turns my images to their code form rather than showing the image.
