Correction – query_posts will obey the More tag, even if you specify it to only show one Post.

I read “The <!–more–> quicktag will not operate and is ignored if there is only one post being displayed. ” in the_content page.

I have a custom template being used as the home page, which is using query_posts and get_posts* throughout the page, and I too could not get More to work.

However, after adding “$more = 0” above my query_posts call, it worked fine.

* I’m annoyed that I can’t exclude categories from get_posts. I’m also annoyed that the default behavior of query_posts is to ignore the More tag when showposts=1 …

Cili – you need to use a database administration tool, like phpMyAdmin, to edit fields in the database.

I think my real problem with this is not renaming a category in the database, it’s that WordPress does not actually *delete* anything from the table. It is not the expected behavior.
