I'm a new WP author using the basic free pkg on wordpress.com. I cannot see what version of WP is running. I've spent some time this afternoon to understand what I think can happen based on what I've read in the Docs for the author section.
I'm aware the more tag is handy for determining my excerpt for posts that will go to their own permalink page. But I've written a page that is more long form, and the first 55 characters, or less are not what I want on the home page.
The dashboard page for the new post shows a text input area when I click the button in the kitchen sink. When I post the permalink of the static page to it and preview, it shows the text of the permalink. I see a path :P in an uneditable area so I've not read what that does.
So, am I thinking about it wrong? I want to click on the post and go to a page that I made beforehand.
I have not seen how to do this, thanx, sam
