"Read more" cutoff

Hi guys, the Newspaper theme is really great but the “read more” cut-off has never worked. Is there any chance you could look into this? I could really use this on my editorial, otherwise it’s a lot of text at first sight.

Hi

This read more tag it’s a WordPress feature, and doesn’t works on theme’s block because of excerpts function, but you can use it in module 15: http://screencast.com/t/6rnAV0fM To insert it you need to edit the post like here: http://screencast.com/t/P3TXfdqI
The result should be like here: http://screencast.com/t/UEFRjzj49VSi

Let me know how it goes and provide more details if you still need assistance on this!

Hi Andrei, many thanks for this.

I want to use it on a block (the text with title block). I’m not using module 15 & latest articles (also, I just had a look but I don’t even have module 15 displaying as an option when I adjust the page attributes. The closest I’ve got to your screen shot is “Homepage – with article list”, but then there is no module 15).

Anyway if I’ve understood this right there’s no way to get it to work on the text with title block?

Hi,

If you have on page templates “Homepage – with article list”, this means that you have version 4 of the theme. So you can use module 1 to display entire content of the post, insert the read more tag to cut the text where you wish. Please note that no block was designed using this module(this module use post text content, it not using excerpt like other modules) so it can be used only for blog page, category page, latest articles.. If you want to display latest articles using module 1 please check page settings – http://screencast.com/t/0LxtKaotr

Thanks!
