    I am in the process of building my site using Simple Catch and the Continue Reading tag is not showing up. I use the insert more tag available while writing a post and it shows up when I select another theme, yet in this Simple Catch there seems to be something in the way. The post in question is on my homepage titled “Test Post”. The link to my homepage is here:

    I’ve gone through several pages of the forum looking for an answer but have come up short. Any suggestions?

    @CollegeCook: It is not showing as the excerpt text length is less than what is defined in “Appearance => Theme Options => Excerpt / Mote Tag Settings”. So, either write more text in your post content or you need to reduce the excerpt length in theme options panel.

    That solution worked greatly.

    Is there anyway that I’d be able to remove the excerpt requirement altogether, or at the very least pictures that aren’t designated as “Featured Image” appear before the More Tag?

    @CollegeCook: Sorry this option to remove the excerpt is only there in Simple Catch Pro where you can change “Content Layout” to “Full Content Display” from “Appearance => Theme Options => Layout Options =>Content Layout”, then your site will show all the content before more tag.

    For Simple Catch Free version, you can achieve this by building child theme and then copy content.php to your child theme and change the following code
    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
    To
    <?php the_content(); ?>

    That’ll support my needs just fine, thank you, Sakin.
