Insert more tag issue

Hello,

This is no issue. The more tag will not work with our excerpts as they are custom made. If you want to add manual excerpts to a post you can do it from here in post settings: http://screencast.com/t/hwZcmrCykl
Our excerpts can be controlled from the theme panel: https://forum.tagdiv.com/excerpts-introduction/
The only place where the more tag will work is the m15 module that can be used on category pages for example:
http://screencast.com/t/6qI88R3RnS – this module will display the full content of the post but it cannot be used on pages as there is no content block created with this module.

Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Hi James,
Let me try to explain a different way.
The read more tag will only work on module 15. Our theme uses modules and blocks. Blocks are simple containers for 1 or more modules. The module is the basic structure of the theme elements that display posts on a page or category archive, …etc. You can see how blocks are created using modules here: http://screencast.com/t/NpZhgQaafW5j
There is only one module where the more tag will work and that is module 15. Any other module will ignore the more tag. Unfortunately module 15 cannot be used on pages. Only on category archives and wordpress templates where you can use modules directly without the use of content blocks: http://screencast.com/t/LyqkFkgnC
On your homepage you cannot have module 15 unfortunately, but you can controll the excerpts in different ways. You can either select the length for them for a particular module from here: http://screencast.com/t/zz485MYMThM or you can assign a custom excerpt for every post in post edit like the screenshot above: http://screencast.com/t/hwZcmrCykl (you will have to type in the excerpt)
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
