[Plugin: Subscribe2] Short posts vs. excerpts

@yonat,

If the plugin needs to make an excerpt of your post it adds ‘[…]’ at the end of the text to indicate that it has been truncated.

Thanks, but the problem is that the “…” does not appear when there is a <!–more–> tag in the post. I would like to show “…” or something similar when there is more to read.

@yonat,

You could only make this happen if you are using the HTML more tag by editing the code – are you comfortable making code changes? If so then look in the publish function for the area where the more tag is checked.

You’ll see these two lines:

$excerpt = strip_tags($excerpt);
$excerpt = trim($excerpt);

Add this immediately after those two lines:
$excerpt = $excerpt . "[...]";

If you are not happy editing code you’ll have to find another way to write your blog posts without using the more tag.

Thanks!
