What a neat little trick to use. Thanks for sharing.

Don't you love this:))

I just have to laugh because there are just so many little icons that I seem to ignore That's a nifty tool there, Loes.

I love to cheer things up:))

Hey...that's pretty cool :)

That's what I thought too, pretty cool!

You're like a stream with a constant flow of goodies :)

Hi Loes,

I used that trick too when I wanted to insert something so that I can find it right away.

<!--put code start here -->
Put ad code here or image code here.
<!--end code here -->

That's also something to share on a blog here :))

Loes, you always share the coolest things!

Love this and will try it out :D

I ♥ it too:)) Success Patsy

Thanks :)

I wonder, my theme automatically does the 'read more' I don't have it like you do in edit.

I may try it by adding it at the end of my article in 'text' and see if it works.

You don't get that line in "text mode" either?

No, I followed Marion's tutorial a while back and it didn't work for me. I don't remember now it's been a while, how I ended up have the 'read more' added. I'm thinking it's from my theme.

I probably have notes for it but when I get the chance I'll just try and add it to the end of my post in text....unless that won't work?

Try things out on your test website:)

I don't have a test website.
I'll add it then preview it first.

Thanks!

You still don't have one? I use it also to activate themes from other to be able to take a look at it when they are stuck

I never bothered.
I know it's safer having one.

It sure is, and very handy, I have tested dozens of plugins, to look what they do, and if they are a bit easy to work with

Do you leave them blank? if they are just for testing...

I activate them, test them and delete again, when they are not what I am looking for

I am using that on my next post! Thank you!!
