what do you mean lose it? something like ‘read more’ should only appear if you’ve actually specified to use it. are you using excerpts or something?

thanks for replying iblastoff – i assumed that it should only appear if you specify it, but i don’t know how to unspecify it. there doesn’t seem to be a tag for it. i’ve tried hard to make sure i’m not using excerpts – perhaps that’s part of the problem. is read more a plug-in?

thanks again

Well, it is hard to tell what “read more”-link is. Maybe it’s a plugin, like rss_auto_excerpt that output’s the thing and also causes the article-cutoff, that you were talking about earlier on other topic. But it can, althought, be just a link, like <txp:permlink>Read more...</txp:permlink>.

  1. What is in your article-form?
  2. What plugins you have?
  3. Tag trace?

Cheers!

are you using a txp template or something? or did you install rss_auto_excerpt on your own? either way, the plugin makes use of its own tag (<txp:rss_auto_excerpt />) so you’d need to find where it is and replace it with the ordinary <txp:article /> tag
