should be something like this:
<?php
if (function_exists('has_excerpt') && has_excerpt()) the_excerpt();
else the_content('More...');
?>

<div class="postthumb">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?> <!--This shows the thumbnail in the post, always plase in the loop-->
</div>
<div class="postdetail">
<h2 class="posttitle"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<span class="post_date"><?php the_time('j.m.Y') ?></span>
<?php
if (function_exists('has_excerpt') && has_excerpt()) the_excerpt();
else the_content('More...');
?>
<!--<div class="postmetabottom"> Use this div to add comments back in
</div> -->
</div>
</div>
are you getting full content and the more link? or just the more link and no content?
I now have the below which shows the read more link but not the excerpt itself, any ideas how I get the excerpt to show. ALl help appreciated
looks like you changed you reply, so now no more link either?
might try:
<div class="postthumb">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?> <!--This shows the thumbnail in the post, always plase in the loop-->
</div>
<div class="postdetail">
<h2 class="posttitle"><a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<span class="post_date"><?php the_time('j.m.Y') ?></span>
<?php the_excerpt();?>
<p><a>">read more</a></p>
<!--<div class="postmetabottom"> Use this div to add comments back in
</div> -->
</div>
</div>
