  Hey,
  I’m having real trouble getting the ‘more’ tag to work…

  I want to use it on several static pages where I’ll be publishing MP3 files for download. The files are DJ mixes, so they have a track-listing containing 15 – 20 lines of text. I was hoping to use the ‘more’ tag to hide the track-listings…

  Can anyone help me with this, or mayhbe suggest an alternative?

  Thanks!

  Read More will probably never work, but try the Page Jump instead:

  How do I page jump?

  Thanks Raincoaster. Is this beacause i’m trying to use it on a page rather than a post?

  Yes. Pages, you see, never show on your main blog page. They never exist in a “stream” of other posts, so there’s less reason for this to be required. You COULD make two pages, and make one a sub-page of the other, etc, etc, fifteen times, but that would be really tedious.

  There is no “click to expand/click to hide” option on WP.com, just the page jump option.

  You could also use <!--nextpage--> by typing it into the HTML editor. You can use this tag as many times as you want to split one “page” up into several pages.
