  Hello.

  Is it possible to remove the ‘read more’ function?
  I want to display the full post on the main page for a period of time. Then later add back the ‘read more’ function when I create a new post.

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

  You have to edit your post under the “HTML” view. From there, find the “<!–more–>” code and delete it.

  There isn’t “<!–more–>” in the html view.
