Auto-generated excerpt.

My main goal is to get WordPress to make an auto-excerpt, based on the post I am writing. I do not want to use the “quicktag” while I’m writing the post, nor fill in an excerpt in the Optional Excerpt-field.

I therefore use the following string inside the loop in index.php:

<?php the_excerpt(‘Read more’, FALSE, ”); ?>

Now, this results in a shortened post in the front page, like I want it. BUT, where I would expect the “Read More” to be, there is only a “[…]”, even without a link to the complete post! And when I click the title, I get to the page with the post, but STILL with the “[…]” at the end. I can’t read the rest of the post!

All help appreciated! ??
