How to Use More Tags in WordPress Blog Posts

1. Log into your WordPress account. Click on 'Posts' and select 'Add New.'
2. Start writing your post in the blank text box and stop writing when you reach the place where you'd like to enter the 'More' tag.

3. Click on the 'More' tag button in the toolbar above the text box. This button is labeled with the symbol of a page cut in half horizontally with a dotted line. It should be to the right of the hyperlink button, which looks like two links of a chain. Clicking this button adds the code that truncates your post.
4. Click on the 'HTML Editor' tab at the top of the text box. You see a piece of code: '
.' To customize the link that takes readers from the beginning of your post on the front page or archive, add extra text after '
.' This is the message that will appear at the end of the first segment and will contain a link your readers can click on to read the rest of the post.
5. Finish your post and click 'Publish' to make it live. You are now able to view the beginning of your post on the front page of your blog.
