If you’re wondering why I kept posting about Wordpress “How-To”, it’s for my own record.

Anyway, here’s the guide to add “Read More” link to your Wordpress blog. Under index.php (might be different depending on your Template/Theme), look for the following code:
<?php the_content(''); ?>

Replace with this:
<?php the_content('Read on...'); ?>

That’s it! Ok…so it’s “Read on…” and not “Read More”, but you can always change it to whatever you like. (How about “Eat more”?)

Seems like I’m having some extensions problems as soon as I upgraded my Firefox to the latest version, 1.5.0.6. Adsense Notifier and GMail Manager doesn’t seem to work. Did some Google search but no one else had the same problems.

Anyone had any problems with theirs as well? Any solutions?

Most of the time, when you include code using the < code> and < / code> in Wordpress editor, you will get weird codes (like addition of spaces, weird symbols coming out etc). To solve this, make use of this Wordpress plugin called “Code Markup“.

Steps:
1. Download the plugin here: Right Click and Save As..
2. Upload to your Wordpress Plugin folder
3. Activate the Plugin.
4. Go to Options>>Writing>>
5. Uncheck the “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” option box.

That’s it!

Just add the following code anywhere in the template file:
<?php edit_post_link(); ?>

It will appear only when the owner is logged in.

To add little “ummm”, use this code:
<?php edit_post_link('Nehneheneheneh'); ?>
Add anything you want to replace “Nehneheneheneh”.
