Title: “More” function question Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # “More” function question * [therange](https://wordpress.org/support/users/therange/) * (@therange) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/) * Hello, * I’m testing my website before I launch it and there’s a problem. I had 2 posts( each including a “more” tag) and the website was good and intact. But when I posted a third post and added the “more” tag, it screwed up my sidebar (it went down to the bottom of the page)…does anyone know what’s causing this? * Thanks in advance!

If it corrects the problem, then it’s a themeing problem, and you should contact the theme author for a fix. * Otherwise you should post a link to your site so volunteers here can have a look and tell you where and what needs to be changed. * Thread Starter [therange](https://wordpress.org/support/users/therange/) * (@therange) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397584) * [http://www.itestdrive.net](http://www.itestdrive.net) * It’s a popular theme (connections) so I don’t think there’s a bug * Can anyone please help? * P.S. – I just switched to the classic theme and the problem presists… * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397587) * [http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//itestdrive.net/](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//itestdrive.net/) Unclosed div!

one, now it says I have a for an unopen tag. This seems to be in the latest post, which file can I edit that controls my latest post? * Thanks a lot * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397601) * _which file can I edit that controls my latest post?_ * No files. Posts (as all the content) are stored in the database. Check what you wrote in the last posts. Are you using the wysiwyg editor? * Thread Starter [therange](https://wordpress.org/support/users/therange/) * (@therange) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397662) * Yes, does that make a difference? * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397672) * Most of the time it does. While the wysiwyg seems to be an “easy” way to post– actually it requires more learning than using some basic html tags. Additionally, it seems to be a bad one: it always adds all kind of weird code to the posts. So, the unclosed div might have been started inside your post by the wysiwyg… * Thread Starter [therange](https://wordpress.org/support/users/therange/) * (@therange) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397685) * Sounds good. I know a lot of basic HTML tags, is there a place where I can get HTML tags for wordpress (for example, inserting the “more” function)? * Thanks! * [Doodlebee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/doodlebee/) * (@doodlebee) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397687) * to add a “more” area to your post, all you have to do is type in where you want the extended text to begin when writing your post. * Thread Starter [therange](https://wordpress.org/support/users/therange/) * (@therange) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397752) * Thanks a bunch * One very last question. When writing HTML, do I just post it in the WordPress wysiwyg editor? * [alrescha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alrescha/) * (@alrescha) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/more-function-question/#post-397778) * IIRC, the WYSIWYG editor page does have a link to switch to HTML mode. * Otherwise, you could specify to use HTML editor by default in: * 1.
