The entire post is not showing

    I posted an article, “Be the change you want to see” but only portions of it are being displayed when I click “Read More”. It shows up completely when I click “Edit”.
    Can anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrtong or, if it is a WordPress problem?

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

    There is very messy code in your post.
    Its possible that you have open tags around the “more tag”, but there are other code errors that are causing problems.

    Are you posting by copying and pasting from “MS-Word” or a word processor?

    Thanks for your response.
    Usually, I copy and paste from Word, but sometimes I write on an e-mail document and then copy and paste to WordPress.
    Can you tell me what is an “open Tag” and how I might close it?

    First, goto
    your left column of the dashboard–> Settings –> writing
    Scroll to “Formating” and check the box: beside “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically”
    and remember to “Save changes”

    hopefully that will autocorrect the code.

    Dashboard >> Settings >> Writing >> Check “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically”

    Then make a small change in the Posts that you are suspicious of, (add then delete a space or something) then click on “Update” for the Post

    That usually does the trick, else you need to look at the html code part of the Post and that is not easy unless you have some experience with code.

    Also make sure you are using the Paste from Word or Past Plain Text (the 2nd line on the tools section of the editor just above your text box about the middle of the bar) when you are pasting from outside sources, they should strip the extra junk out of the formatting, Word and such does a nice job of writing letters, not such a nice job of web stuff.
