 * In your editor there is a button with the more function.
    Put the cursor in your
   post where you want people to click the read more link. and press the more button

 * A. If you have asked ‘how to enter read more…?’ then do following,
 * 1. If you are using WYSIWYG editor(WP or third party), click HTML button and 
   enter <!–more–>.
    2. If you uses non-WYSIWYG editor then just enter <!–more–>.
 * B. Incase you have asked for customizing TEXT of “read more”. Then open Post.
   php and look for <?php the_content(); ?> and enter your TEXT withing “()” next
   to content. For e.g. (‘read the rest of this post..’).
