 * Hi
    How do I compress the posts that I make to my blog instead of the entire 
   post appearing?
 * My blog is at [http://www.thereisecrets.com/blog](http://www.thereisecrets.com/blog)
   &
   all I need is for the first paragraph or so to post with a link for the remaining
   part of the posts
 * Please advise
 * Derek

 * You can do it manually by typing the first paragraph and then using the “<!–MORE–
   >” quicktag for the rest of your post.
 * There are also plugins that will do the work for you. Search for “limit post”.
 * Regards
