huh. well dang. my theme, chunk, does not have a ‘page.php’ nor does it have a ‘single.php’ . I borrowed the ‘single.php’ from twenty-ten and that did the trick! thanks!
now there’s a small bug at the top of my blog page where its loading a dynamic pair FB buttons.. which I think is because of the excerpt code I dropped in:
<?php
global $more; // Declare global $more (before the loop).
$more = 0; // Set (inside the loop) to display content above the more tag.
the_content(“More…”);
?>
perhaps I dont need to put this bandaid in the code if someone can tellme why the ‘more’ button doesn’t seem to work on my second blog page..??
In the template for your second blog page, is the loop code set to show the_content or the_excerpt?
the content. since the ‘more’ button doesn’t seem to work when posting blogs to this page (http://www.thirdeyeyogastudio.com/blog/buzz) then I was looking to add in an excerpt script.. but I am wondering why I need to do this since the ‘more’ button works on the main page (http://www.thirdeyeyogastudio.com/blog/)
The home page is probably using index.php while other “pages” are using page.php.
The “read more” link is working on that page in the “30 Things to Stop Doing to Yourself” article, possibly because that is the only article long enough. Looks like you are showing the_excerpt in that template.
WP has excerpt capability built in. You should see the dialog box on the add/edit post screens. If you leave the box blank it takes the first 55 words of the post.

The reason you see it working is because I added in the following code at the top of my page.php. Beforehand the ‘more’ function just didn’t work. When making a post I would insert the ‘more’ button but nothing would happen.
Since I added in the code below, it works but do you see the pair of facebook buttons at the top of the page? I dont know why they are showing up.
Im just wondering why I would need to add any script because Im thinking it should simply work.. :/
<?php
global $more; // Declare global $more (before the loop).
$more = 0; // Set (inside the loop) to display content above the more tag.
the_content(“More…”);
?>
