# Summarizing entries?

 * How feasible is it for me to compact long blog entries into a single link from
   my journal to the specific entry? I’ve noticed that this feature is available
   in most blog programs, so I’m sure that there’s a tool to use here. I would like
   to be able to offer a summary in an entry, and then a “Click here for more information”
   link, which links directly to the entry/comments page. Thank you for your help!

 * Have your looked around in your admin panel > Write > Write Post section?
    There
   is a “more” button that breaks the text where inserted and displays a “read more…”
   link on the frontend.

 * I don’t see that “more tab”– sorry for being dense, where on the page is it?

 * Your “more” button is up on the button panel just above the box where you type
   your post. It looks like a little white rectangle above a dotted line and a longer
   rectangle. If you mouse over it says “split post with “more” tag” and gives the
   keyboard shortcut ( Alt-T ).
 * Hope this helps!

 * Ok, I’m feeling a little silly now, but I still don’t find it. I have, in order
   from left to right:
    Bold Italicize Underline Strikethrough Color Palate Highlight
   Erase Outline Bullet Outdent Indent Alignment keys Next row: Link Unlink Insert
   Image Edit Image Smiley Cut Copy Paste Dictionary HTML
 * So I’m pretty sure that the icon you mentioned should be there within those other
   options, but I’m feeling a little goofy. I’m sure that it’s right in front of
   my nose. I just don’t see it.
