Recipe 13: Read More link

Note

Ingredients

Read More link module: http://drupal.org/project/ed_readmore

The Read More link module moves the standard Read more link into the teaser body, where it is generally easier for users to notice. The module applies universally to teasers, whether content is part of a view or not, but seems especially appropriate to recommend it together with the frontpage view (Recipe 12).

1. Note the appearance of the Read more link in your content item.

   

2. Install and enable the Read More link module.

3. Note the new location of your read more link. You may configure the text of the link at http://YOURSITE.com/admin/settings/ed_readmore.

   

Recipe notes

• This tweak has the added benefit of adding a link to the RSS feed.

• Add a <!--break--> comment in the body of your content to control the teaser text break, or set a default teaser length at Administer | Content Management | Post Settings.

• The default teaser length is not retroactive...
