Excerpt and More Tag (2 posts)

    I'd like to do something to the effect of:
    <?php the_excerpt(__('Continue Reading This Entry'));?>

    I want to use the excerpt, not the more tag, so the_content won't cut it in this case. I've tried advanced excerpt plugin, but it's not working in wp3.

    WP Documentation indicates that you can do it by adding to functions.php:

    function new_excerpt_more($post) {
    return 'ID) . '">' . 'Read the Rest...' . '';
    }
    add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');

    But I tried that, and my excerpts aren't showing more tags.

    Anyone got any ideas? Thanks!

    Exact same question.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/excerpt_more does not appear to be working in 3.0, unless we are overlooking something.

    Thanks!
