Customizing Read More Issues (4 posts)

    I'm new to WordPress and have been trying to customize the text for the "Read More" and I've read the Codex page here as well as a number of guides on other websites, but the problem is that I cannot find the document that the string of code exists within. I've checked index.php, post.php, formatting.php and a number of other files to no avail. So where the heck is it located in the latest version?

    Usually the template tag, the_content(), which causes the "Read More" text, is in a theme's index.php file. For instance, with the WordPress Default theme, that is in wp-content/themes/default/index.php.

    Hi,

    It seems quicktags "more" does not work. I use WP 2.7.1 and standard theme, as well. Below is what I did :
    1. Add new post
    2. Switch the editor to HTML view
    3. Click button more to insert <!--more--> between words
    4. Save and Upload
    But I can't find the "read more" in the words.

    What step I missed?

    Thank you
