Adventure Log 'Read More' breaks?

Genevieve

Hi there- newbie to OP and most coding. I'm trying to make my Adventure Log all pretty, but the last post I put up was 1300 words and is clogging out all the other entries.

Is there a way to insert a 'Read More' type of break that would show up on the main Adventure Log listing page but not the specific Adventure Log post?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is outlined here in the awesome "Help & Tips FAQ":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/sanction/wikis/tips-tricks#2
It is a sticky on the main forum page, and is a great resource.

Basically, just add this line where you want the break to occur:

I tried that last night and it wasn't working...
Looked at it again this morning (ah, precious sleep!) and realized I was working under the Textile 4 still, by accident.
Thanks very much!

It should work under either textile mode. The thing to watch out for in this case is that the forums have converted the two dashes (-) before and after the work more in the above example into a single m-dash. It's trying to help, I'm sure, but it's not... :p The version in the FAQ should copy and paste properly.

Thanks- got it. And here I thought I was being clever with Textile 3/4. I'd tried a few things last night but none of them seemed to work, but once I went to the tips FAQ, it worked exactly as I was hoping!
Thanks again- I really appreciate it. A GM from one of my games has offered a significant reward for prettifying his OP campaign and I mean to take him up on it!

Wow, how did I not know this.
I need to give the tips section more thoroughly.
