Read More Button/Link in Metadata - want in post (3 posts)

    I'm using the Grunge 2 theme by SkinPress.

    The <!--more--> tag works just fine, however it shows up in the post's metadata - across from the comments link. I would like to find out how to get this button/link to show up inside the post - preferably left aligned so that it is easier for the reader to tell that there is more content.

    You'll need to edit the theme's index.php template first to move the code out of the post meta area first; Look for:
    <div class="alignright"><a href="<?php the_permalink();?>" class="readmore"><span>Read More</span></a></div>

    and delete it. Then try adding <a href="<?php the_permalink();?>" class="readmore"><span>Read More</span></a> immediately after <?php the _content();?>.

    Thanks esmi! Worked great.

    But how do I get the 'Read More' to not show if the entire post is already visible (i.e. i didn't manually insert the <!--more--> tag into the post??
