1) It’s only going to work on the front page.
2) It’s only going to work if there’s more than one post to show. This means that if it’s the only post in the system, it’s not going to work, and it also means that if you have it set to display only one post on the front page, it isn’t going to work.

The blog site is at http://www.cellphone-reviews.org/ and there are many posts on the main page. Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?
Ummm…. are you using — (two dashes) or – (one dash)?
-tg
It is indeed odd. And you need two dashes:
<!–more–>
It looks like there is only one dash on the screen. I then just to edit the message, but editor shows two dashes.
When I view the source in the browser, it shows the following:
<!–more–>
I am not sure how that is interpreted.
try using a blank line before and after the <!--more--> tag
What plugins do you have installed and activated?
-tg
Blank lines do not help. For some strange reason <!–more–> is getting changed to <!-more->
The following plugins are installed:
Automatic WordPress Music Player
Hello Dolly
LiveCalendar
Markdown
Cronless Postie
Postie
Textile 1
WP-Cron Reminder
WP Plugin Manager
ah. IIRC, Markdown and Textile are not compatible. Use one or the other.
I dont have any plugins installed, and i still cant get the <!–more–> to work.
Thanks for the info on the plugins. I have removed Textile and now where the <!–more–> was displayed, now it does not display anything.
My source message looks like this in the editor:
————
line 1
line 2
<!–more–>
Line 3
Line 4
————
But on the screen it looks like this:
————
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
Line 4
————–
Does anyone have any ideas why the <!–more–> is not doing anything?
softstor: you still have a conflict with the plugins. From a quick browse of the economy size geek website:
Also – I got a complaint that Markdown causes problems with Postie. Postie will now complain about it. I’ve never used Markdown before – so if any of ya’ll do – someone please confirm that it still causes a problem and that it wasn’t just the HTML -No Images problem.
from a glance at your source, you’ve got one plugin putting <p></p> markers in, and another adding <br /> after the fact.
I do not think it is a plugin problem. I just removed every single plugin and it still shows the same. In fact, when I type an article in the editor I noticed that every line is double spaced. Any clues why this is happening?
I downloaded Firefox, and when I create a new post it does not add the [p][/p] on every line. This only happens when I use IE.
Is there some fix when using IE?
