  I am looking for a plugin that will shorten my posts. I have some long posts and I don’t want it to make my homepage super long. A lot of sites have the posts with a few paragraphs and then a link to continue to read the post. So whats a good plugin to do that? I appreciate any help.

  Is this you? http://poeticsoul44.wordpress.com/
  There are no posts there, and the site linked to your name is for myspace.

  We don’t know if you have a wp.COM blog without a link (starting with http:// ).

  If you are talking about a wp.ORG site, the the advice about the more-tag will not apply. Note: we cannot use plugins here at wp.COM so the more-tag is a shortcode.

  YOu are in the wrong forum and need to be at WordPress.ORG instead. we cannot add plugins to our blogs and therefore cannot help you.

  Yes, that is a wp.ORG site
  This forum is for wp.COM

  wp.ORG and wp.COM are different and separate from each other. You should ask in the wp.ORG forum: http://wordpress.org/support/

  Details about the differences between the two:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
