Latest version is 1.1, released on 14 February 2009.
Seemore is a WordPress plugin that makes reading posts more intuitive for your many readers. With Seemore, when readers click a (more…) link they see the full article on the screen, not just the part after the (more…).
For example, suppose you go to the Nursery Blog and look at the front page. You might see a summary of the latest post that looks like the following.
Nursery Blog
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
(more…)
Click the more link and you see only the remainder of the post:
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again
But with Seemore, you’ll see the full article:
Nursery Blog
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again
This is more intuitive. (Your intuition may vary.) After I click a (more…) link, I often find myself scrolling up to make sure that I am where I think I am, and I’m not missing anything.
For an example of Seemore in action, see the front page of this very site, Semicolon.
Compatibility
Seemore has been tested successfully with WordPress versions from 1.5 to 2.7, and should also work with newer versions as they are released.
Download and Install
Get Seemore at the WordPress Plugin Directory. You can download and install directly from your WordPress administration console.
For a best-of-breed fully-integrated automatic turnkey solution, combine Seemore with my other plugin Evermore, which automatically inserts the (more…) links for you.

@Matteo, I don’t know if it would possible to write Seemore for Blogger. I’m not very familiar with the Blogger platform, but I don’t think it’s as extensible as WordPress.
Bennett, thanks for your reply. Well Blogger is not as extensible as WordPress, that’s for sure. There are some tweaks than one can implement within the XML of the template but it’s, as I said, tweaking the template itself rather than “extending” with a plugin.
Thanks anyway, I will let you know if I find a workaround!
Hey,
i just installed the plugin with the current version of wordpress (2.9) and it does not work. i’m talking about my old posts (more tag allready inserted) and my new posts (new posts with more tag through visuell or html editor). i activated it in the plugin page and after your description it should work fine then. what am i doing wrong?
thanks
Hi, your plug in is very nice, but i have one question:
how can i change the “Read the rest of this entry »” ? I search in file .php but don’t find nothig..im not familiar with PHP.
p.s. sorry for my BAD english
@Damiano, the “Read the rest of this entry” text is part of your theme. You can edit your theme’s index.php file and change the “Read the rest of this entry” into some other text. Or you could contact the theme author and ask for help. Good luck.
Does the plugin works with the current wordpress version 3.0.1?
@Pflasterbau, yes it does.
Alle Geräte erfordern gemäß der Addition aller Wattzahlen insgesamt eine Wattanzahl von 1970 W, wobei die Rücklage 20 Prozent 394 W beträgt. Der Generator sollte daher eine Leistungsfähigkeit von wenigstens 2500 W oder 2,5 kW genauer 2,5 kVA haben.
I’m impressed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both equally educative and entertaining, and without a
doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that too few men and women are speaking intelligently about.
Now i’m very happy that I stumbled across this in my
hunt for something concerning this.
