Maybe it’ll be easier to use 4k’s suggested plugin… your call ??

yay… the funky character you mention is supposed to be an ellipsis character which is different from three points “& # 8 2 3 0 ;” without the spaces… I’m unable to paste it here without it converting to the actual ellipsis…

Like this:

You have to use the <!–more–> tag in your posts, more info here:

Adding the following code to the functions.php of your theme should do the trick:

function clickable_ellipsis($content){

	$searchfor = '/\[(…)\]/';
	$replacewith = '[<a href="'.get_permalink().'">$1</a>]';

	$content = preg_replace($searchfor, $replacewith, $content);
	return $content;

}

add_filter('the_excerpt', 'clickable_ellipsis');

Looks like a CSS floating problem.

Try adding this to the end of the style.css file of your theme:

.postinfo {
	clear: both;
}

It’s built in WordPress already.

Try:

https://YOURBLOGADDRESS.com/category/THECATEGORY/feed (if you’re using pretty permalinks)

Or:

https://YOURBLOGADDRESS.com/?feed=rss2&cat=CATEGORYID (where CATEGORYID is the ID of the category.

I think the best way would be to create a different page template instead.

It seems that you have to edit the header.php file of the theme.

Replacing this:

<ul id="topnav">
	<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" id="navHome" title="Posted Recently" accesskey="h">Home</a> | </li>
	<li><a href="/about/" id="navAbout" title="About the Author" accesskey="a">About</a> | </li>
	<li><a href="/archives/" id="navArchives" title="Posted Previously" accesskey="r">Archives</a> | </li>
	<li><a href="/links/" id="navLinks" title="Recommended Links" accesskey="l">Links</a> | </li>
	<li><a href="/contact/" id="navContact" title="Contact the Author" accesskey="c">Contact</a></li>
</ul>

For just this:

<ul id="topnav">
	<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" id="navHome" title="Posted Recently" accesskey="h">Home</a> | </li>
</ul>

The same previous/next links used in the main page should work just fine:

<?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?>
<?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?>

:^)

Thanks ??

LOL

I once faced the same dilemma ^_^.

Here is the code that I came up with:

function link_image($content){

$searchfor = '/(<img[^>]*\/>)/';
$replacewith = '<a href="'.get_permalink().'">$1</a>';

if (is_single() === FALSE){
	$content = preg_replace($searchfor, $replacewith, $content, 1);
}
return $content;

}

add_filter('the_content', 'link_image');

Copy and paste that code into your functions.php file, and you’re all set.

Cheers!

You can use multiple loops.

Something like:

<?php query_posts('showposts=1'); ?>

 <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    the_excerpt();
 <?php endwhile;?>

Of course, it depends on the role you give each user.
