You’re welcome, bchitala. Sorry it took me a few days to know you had posted.

What you’re describing is done with a content management system (CMS) that uses server-side programming and a database, which WordPress will easily manage for you. While I do have one PHP tutorial here and plan to add more in the future, building a proper CMS from scratch is far more extensive than including a few files or creating a mail form, and requires extensive knowledge of 4 different languages: PHP, MySQL, (x)HTML, and CSS.

Hi Lesa. No I’m not using WordPress. I have never tried WordPress at all. I’m just learning how to design a website from scratch. Right now I’m doing a lot of reading but can’t figure out how truncating stories is coded. thanks for getting back to me.

Sorry I missed your question before, bchitala.

Are you using WordPress? WordPress does this automatically.

Hi Lesa,
I want to know what coding is involved if you just want a portion of a story to be read on one page and the remainder of the paragraphs to be read on another page (i.e. “Read More…”). Do you have to create a new page and how do you link it up with the main page since it’s not on the main navigation link? Could you please give me an example of both the HTML and CSS codes to use. This Much appreciated.
