   Sorry, I didn't find any link to "contribute" or "report" for the codex pages.

   The documentation definition for the "more tag" is inconsistent and it's a pain to follow!

   We all know there are "Layout" tags, but until you get used to those wordpress functions, a tag for most of people who needs the documentation is like a "HTML" tag.

   1) BOTH of them won't prin. Their content will, so saying "do this so the tag is not displayed" or "to remove the tag" only confuses more.

   Teaser is also called something different everywhere.

   Please MAKE IT consistent. I get more confused every time I read it.

   If anyone knows the correct naming, PLEASE LET ME KNOW even before the changes get to the documentation.

   I wanted to remove the content until the <--more--> tag and couldn't find how that piece of text is called. Teaser? pre-more content? semi-automatic excerpt? (the auto-excerpt would be the one by word-limit, I think)

   Thanks.

   read:
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_content

   according to this codex chapter, the part before the 'more-tag' is called 'teaser'.

   example (most likely to be used in single .php):

   <?php the_content('',true); ?>

   Thanks, I know it now, but if I was a new wordpress alchemist I couldn't figure it out by reading the documentation for the more page, which this post refers to.

   That's what I "wanted" to know, and led me to visit the more tag again… but basically my problem was another, and it's still un-resolved. You are welcome to contribute http://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-more-1-or-0-wont-trim-the_content
