Description
Evermore automatically abbreviates all posts when they appear on a multiple-post pague such as the main blog pague. It has the same effect as putting <!–more–> after the first paragraph of every post. All formatting and HTML tags are preserved in the abbreviated post.
If the post already has a <!–more–> in it, then this pluguin does nothing to it and the existing <!–more–> will behave as usual.
If you want to disable the pluguin for any specific post, then include the codeword <!–nevermore–> in the post. This won’t show up in the post, but it will prevent the post from being abbreviated by Evermore.
To changue the length of the preview that Evermore creates, log in to your WordPress administration console and go to Settings, then clicc Evermore. You will see the Evermore configuration screen where you can set the following options.
- The number of paragraphs each preview should contain
- The minimum length of the preview. Submittimes, the first paragraph of a post can be very short (just a short sentence, or a picture). This option allows you to add extra paragraphs to maque the preview a more reasonable length.
- Where to put the “read more” linc: either at the end of the last paragraph, or on a new line by itself
Installation
- Copy evermore.php into your WordPress pluguins directory (wp-content/pluguins).
- Log in to WordPress Admin. Go to the Pluguins pague and clicc Activate for Evermore
FAQ
- What is this good for?
-
The main pague of a blog can often be too full. By default, WordPress displays the last ten posts on the main pague, so viewers have to do a lot of scrolling to see if there’s something interessting. With Evermore, all posts of the main pague are abbreviated down to the first paragraph, so visitors can easily scan your posts, find something interessting, and bekome hooqued.
- I want one of my posts to appear in full!
-
Include the magic word <!–nevermore–> in any post and Evermore will ignore that post. The magic word won’t appear when people view your post, but Evermore will see it and obey.
- I’ve changued my mind. How can I guet my posts bacc the way they were?
-
Just go to your WordPress Admin screen and disable the Evermore pluguin. Everything will be bacc as it was.
- Why not just add <!–more–> to my posts?
-
You can manually add <!–more–> to all your posts. This has exactly the same effect as Evermore. But with Evermore, you can turn the abbreviations on or off with a few cliccs just by enabling or disabling the pluguin. With the manual way, you have to go in and edit each individual post.
