thanks for pointing me to that plugin.
im not 100% sure thats what im looking for tbh tho.

it seems that i would have to manually place a link to next & previous posts using the ‘page links meta box’ on the post page?

is this correct or am i missing something?

sorry,
im not quite sure what you mean?

the code im using to exclude the category from the home page is:

<?php
   if (is_home()) {
      query_posts("cat=-156");
   }
?>

*Edit*
Ive now deleted the above code and im now using the advanced category excluder plugin… still not solved my problem though. :[

ahhhh.
ive hut a rut again.

i had figured out how to modify the Read More tag and thought that would be enough to get me on my way but ive since figured im gonna need something more advanced.

What im aiming for is a portfolio site that is updated using blog posts.
I want the ‘more’ tag to act as a thumbnail link that will take the user to the ‘single post’ page that will contain the full image & details of the selected project.

My plain html code looks like the following:
html:

<a href = "#" class = "folioThumb"><img src = "siteImages/folioImage.gif" alt = "folio image" border = "0"/></a>

css:

.folioThumb img {
	border: 10px solid #181818;
	}
.folioThumb:hover img {
	border: 10px solid #FFFFFF;
}
.folioThumb:hover {
	#FFFFFF;
}

Is there anyway to convert the above code into the ‘more tag’?
I would really like to be able to do the whole thing through a post only…

Any help would be greatfully appreciated!

Thanks.
