    is it possible to only show the intro text on front page and categories page but when you are on the actual article page to show the text beyond the <–!more–> tag?

    joomla has such a thing where you can check to hide the intro text…

    any ideas please?

    thanks in advance 🙂

    Sure, it is all about how your theme is configured to pull posts.

    For instance, you might change your theme’s index.php to use the_excerpt() instead of the_content(). You can read more at Customizing_the_Read_More in the docs section.

    okay so i figured out… i am using wordpress 2.9 the default template

    and in single php i have this line:

    <?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>'); ?>

    from what i’ve read about the_content(); it seems all i need to do is change the line above in:

    <?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>',TRUE,''); ?> and everything works!

    that TRUE stands for hide text above the <–!more–> tag… exactly what i was aiming for!

    thank you Chris_K for your help!

    best of luck
