  Okay, I’m trying to put a ‘more’ tag on the ‘My Reviews’ page on my blog because the list of links is getting quite long. But whenever I insert it into the page, it doesn’t show up. Is this because I’m using the ‘more’ tag on a page rather than a post? Or is it for another reason?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi. If you want to divide your page into several mini-pages, you may consider pagination instead:

  The “more” tag only works on posts indeed, and the “read more” link will appear only on the front page. (It might be a good idea to use it for your posts!)

  The more tag can only be used on Posts, not Pages. It only effects front page display of Posts. If your Page become too long you can spilt text by using pagination (next page) in both Pages and Posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/nextpage/
