I am using wordpress xml-rpc API to add posts to my blogs, but I would like to have posts excerpts with “more” link in lists of posts. I checked that in database there is tag
in each post content which has excerpt, but if I put this tag in my article it does not work.
Any idea?
You don’t need to use an extra field, just add
<!--more-->
where you want the content to break.You can even customize the “read more” message, like
<!--more But wait, there's more! -->
