Okay, I know with certain themes you can activate the read-more by simply clicking on the read-more button. My other domain, I use this and it’s fine, just fine. No problems. I did notice that at one point as I was working through my blogs, editing, etc, on my pulp fiction site, that I did see read-more several times, but for some reason they disappeared.

So what I did first was I just dropped that tag in where I wanted the break. I made sure it was beyond the minimum no of words, because I believe that can alter it. Nothing.
I tried the traditional read-more plugin from WP, and used that WITH the tag, and that didn’t work.

I tried Collapse-o-Matic, with the shortcode. I inserted [expand title=”trigger text”]hidden content[/expand]. The video I watched showed me exactly what to do. I inserted [expand title= “the last sentence before the break”] Deleted hidden content, and placed [/expand] at the bottom. The result: the shortcode just appeared on my visual, that was all.

I just noticed something weird. When I went to italicize hidden content, the shortcode filled in the blank. I didn’t use the hidden content</em, because I didn’t see it in the instructions. Go figure!

Thanks, if you need any more information. I’d love it if someone could just go into my back office to really get to the bottom of it! (lol).
Thanks for your help so far. I hope I can resolve this because it’s been driving me nuts!
