[resolved] Show post introductions (4 posts)

    Hi all,

    I'm searching for a plug-in that allows only the introductory paragraph of each post, and links to the rest of the article on my site. Each post is quite long, so I'd like to make it easier to navigate.

    I could create an intro post with a link to a page containing the rest of the article, but it seems there would be an easier way to do this.

    Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated. Thanks -

    There is an easier way.

    You could use (the_excerpt) in the blog which would only show the paragraph that you want and it will then link to the whole article.

    Will give you more information.

    HTH!

    ALso, ther is a "more" button where you write your posts and you can insert it wherever you want to break the text - it will do exactly what you want: creating a link to the whole posts.

    My other thought is you should really experiment and play a bit with the tool (=WP) you have at your hand to get familiar with ALL the features in your own admin panel ;)
