    Hello Guys,

    Please share your suggestions on best "read more" plugins out there. I am searching something for my blog. Currently the entire post is visble and I want to have it fixed.

    Thanks in advance.

    Use function on your Loop.php in your themes folder to limited content character example from 200-300 characters
    and then add code to your arhive template to readmore link
    example: http://tinbaohiem.com/category/luat-bao-hiem/

    goodluck

    I have used evermore many times. But these days, themes have their built in read more function.

    Just throwing this out there as you may already be aware, but there's a "Read More" tag in the editor. It gives you more control over where the read more actually occurs.
    It looks like this if you want to type it out in your html editor:
    <!--more-->

    You can also run a mini loop using excerpts <?php the excerpt(); ?> like this:

    <!-- mini loop for the excerpts -->
    <?php while (have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
    <h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
    <p><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" class="red">Read more...</a></p>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    <!-- end the mini loop -->

    You don't need to do any codings for this. The built in wordpress text editor itself has this option. Check it clearly!!!

    Go to the settings > Reading in the admin panel or use the <!--more--> tag.
