Well, besides listening to the electrical version of Pachabel (again) on YouTube by ‘guitar90′, I learned a little bit more about how to ‘Split a tag with the ‘More’ tag: < ! -more- >. The faq.wordpress.com said that the RSS feed won’t be included if these are used in for the ‘Write Post’. But it makes the post entry look ‘shorter’ and one would have to click ‘more’ to read the rest of the article.
It doesn’t work for the ‘Write Page’, which is a bummer because I have several long pages of weblog archives from my old Blogger accounts. The ‘More’ tag (Alt+t) is useful for anything above this line and everything else below are not seen by the reader. I don’t think I’ll be using this feature because I like to read everything upon clicking on the link.
Later, I tried to figure out what purpose the ‘Option Excerpt’ section serves. It is located between the ‘Upload’ section ‘Trackbacks’. I tried testing this ‘Option Excerpt’ and read nothing that shows this ‘excerpt’ on the post itself. The faq.wordpress.com said that this is for other people searching by ‘categories’ and the area is left blank by default.
I still don’t know what this means but I thought this section would have appeared somewhere on the post or page as a separate line. ‘Trackbacks’ is another feature I have yet to test. It allow the blogger to give credit to another author’s work. It alerts the other author through a link of some sort. I’ll have to learn to properly notify those who give me inspirations to my blogs.
