 * Hi!
 * I have a problem with this read more thing. It works too good I suppose. When
   I write a post which doesnt need the read more tag (pretty short post), wordpress
   adds it anyway. And I dont want that 🙂
 * So basicly I want to be able to control when to have the read more link.
 * Any clues?
 * tnx

 * it is probably your theme that does add this for every post on the front page.
 * link?
    theme?
 * or paste the code of your index.php(?) in a [pastebin ](http://wordpress.pastebin.com/)
   and post the link here

 * Yes, you edit archive.php in your theme
 * You might see something like this
 * <?php the_content(__(‘(more…)’)); ?>
 * You can just remove the more argument
 * <?php the_content(); ?>
 * Then you can just manually add the <!–more–> to individual posts when writing
   them
