I tried using the Read More function for the articles posted on the frontpage. Unfortunately the Read More link does not appear but the content after where I added it disappears. I think the plugin works, I just need help making the Read More text and link show up.

An example is the first article on the frontpage: http://www.hibsvietnam.com

The full article is here: http://hibsvietnam.com/en/component/content/article/3-newsflash/128-liberation-day-and-international-workers-day-holidays.html

Any ideas?

Hello,

To show Read More Link,

You login backend–>goto Content->Article manager–>Choose your article–>Edit .

Here you can manually add Read more link to article, Which is below in the body text editor . In the form of menu like Image, Page Layout ,Read more, Toggle Editor . You can manually drag the limit of text for Read more.

I tried that already. Here is the current selected source code with the read more:

<ul>

<li>
May 1, 2011    (Sunday)</li>
<li>
May 2, 2011    (Monday)</li>

</ul>
