@rebakahblam — your .htaccess file is the same directory as your WordPress install.

Have a look at Moving_WordPress for some options.

I’m a little confused, but is this what you’re looking for?

Please keep in mind that this site, wordpress.org, has nothing whatsoever to do with your own hosted WordPress blog.

Sure, two blogs can use the same database. Just ensure each blog has a different “table_prefix” value set in their respective wp-config.php files.

When in doubt, just add “/wp-admin” to the end of your blog’s URL.

Look at Moving_WordPress or Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory to see some options.

Alas, nobody knows who adds a “modlook” tag — and no, adding a “modlook added by me” to the thread won’t curry favor 😉

It definitely is a wonderful contribution towards the health of the forums though.

That’s not too tough with a small modification to The_Loop but the trick is making sure that you don’t do it to subsequent pages (like when folks navigate to older posts).

In your theme’s index.php find
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
and add this right before that line:
<?php $postcount = 0; ?>
and add this right after that line:
<?php $postcount++;

Scroll down a bit to where your theme calls the_content() and replace that with something like this (keep in mind you might want to save your theme’s original the_content() line and replace it below):

<?php if ($postcount == 1 && !is_paged()) : ?>
   <?php the_content(__('Read more'));?><div style="clear:both;"></div>
<?php else : ?>
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

And there you go.
