Continue Reading Link inconsistent / not showing

1. If the <!–more–> tag is inserted near the start of the post the ‘Continue reading’ link does not appear. If the <!–more–> tag is put in further from the start the prompt appears – but not where the more tag is inserted.

This is a continuing problem. The best work-around is leaving the <!–more–> tag out which seems to give the best results if you have enough text in your post to trigger the theme’s automatic ‘Continue Reading’ prompt. But this doesn’t help if you have a photography blog with little text see below…

2. Also the Continue Reading prompt does not appear if the post text is short – which is a huge pain if you have a photography blog with pictures ‘below the fold’. You will want people to click through to view the pictures, but they don’t know they are there because there is no “continue Reading’ prompt.

This issue is definitely *not resolved* at 1.17.

Despite this issue, this is still one of the best free Themes for photography, and the code is a lot easier to follow than many I’ve worked with.
