    Hello everyone! Well, I just cannot set the read more link in place. I don’t know what is wrong but this is not working for me.

    <?php the_content(‘read more…’); ?>

    The read more link does not appear and even the article post does not cut the text (excerpt)..

    Please help!!

    Thank you.
    Greets.

    are you manually inserting the ‘more’ from the editor, or are you making a custom exerpt?

    the_content displays the full post norally, so you wouldn’t see the ‘read more’

    Read More Techniques

    The parameters within the template tag the_content() are as follows:

    <?php the_content( $more_link_text , $strip_teaser, $more_file ); ?>

    This is what is written in codex.wordpress.org but is not working.. and this is what I have:

    <p><?php the_content('<span class="more-text">read more...</span>'); ?></p>

    but it seems it does not works.. I’ve put the ‘more’ from the editor.. nothing happens =/

    I’ve created a function in functions.php and it works!!

    function the_continue_reading_link() {
	return ' <a href="'. get_permalink() . '">' . __( '<span class="more-text">Read more...</span>') . '</a>';
}
