    When you add or edit blog post than you have to insert a pagebreak from the post editor after few paragraph to show read more option in your blog.

    Ummm...This is little technical. If you are not at all a HTML savvy person,
    Take professional help of your friend who knows.
    Make sure to learn from them as they are not always available to help,
    so you need to help yourself.
    As Warrior forum doesn't allow to paste any link here, I am posting the content I found useful.

    Here it is....


    1. Log in to your blogspot account then Navigate to your Blogger dashboard.
    2. Go to Blogger Template > Edit HTML
    3. Click anywhere inside the HTML area and press CTRL + F (Command +F for Mac Users), To enable search box and then copy paste the following code inside the box and Hit enter.
    <data:post.body/>
    Note: after hitting Enter, you'll find this code more than once but you need to stop at the third one.

    4.Now replace the above code with the following code:


    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;static_page&quot;'>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'>
    <div expr:id='&quot;summary&quot; + data:post.id'><data:post.body/></div>
    <script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb(&quot;summary<da ta:post.id/>&quot;,&quot;<data:post.url/>&quot;,&quot;<data:post.title/>&quot;</script>
    <span class='readmore' style='float:right;'><a expr:href='data:post.url'>Read More »</a></span></b:if></b:if>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'><data:post.body/></b:if>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;static_page&quot;'><data:post.body/></b:if>
    Note: if you don't see any changes after going through all the steps, please try to replace the second<data:post.body/> as well.

    5. Next search for </head> tag and then copy paste the below code just above it.

    <script type='text/javascript'>
    posts_no_thumb_sum = 490;
    posts_thumb_sum = 400;
    img_thumb_height = 160;
    img_thumb_width = 180;
    </script>
    <script type='text/javascript'>
    //<![CDATA[
    function removeHtmlTag(strx,chop){
    if(strx.indexOf("<")!=-1)
    {
    var s = strx.split("<");
    for(var i=0;i<s.length;i++){
    if(s[i].indexOf(">")!=-1){
    s[i] = s[i].substring(s[i].indexOf(">")+1,s[i].length);
    }
    }
    strx = s.join("");
    }
    chop = (chop < strx.length-1) ? chop : strx.length-2;
    while(strx.charAt(chop-1)!=' ' && strx.indexOf(' ',chop)!=-1) chop++;
    strx = strx.substring(0,chop-1);
    return strx+'...';
    }
    function createSummaryAndThumb(pID, pURL, pTITLE){
    var div = document.getElementById(pID);
    var imgtag = "";
    var img = div.getElementsByTagName("img");
    var summ = posts_no_thumb_sum;
    if(img.length>=1) {
    imgtag = '<span class="posts-thumb" style="float:left; margin-right: 10px;"><a href="'+ pURL +'" title="'+ pTITLE+'"><img src="'+img[0].src+'" width="'+img_thumb_width+'px" height="'+img_thumb_height+'px" /></a></span>';
    summ = posts_thumb_sum;
    }

    var summary = imgtag + '<div>' + removeHtmlTag(div.innerHTML,summ) + '</div>';
    div.innerHTML = summary;
    }
    //]]>
    </script>

    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;static_page&quot;'>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'>
    <style type='text/css'>
    .post-footer {display: none;}
    .post {margin-bottom: 10px; border-bottom: 1px dotted #E6E6E6; padding-bottom: 20px;}
    .readmore a {text-decoration: none; }
    </style>
    </b:if>
    </b:if>


    Important:
    *To change the number of characters shown when there is no thumbnail, modify the 490 value in blue. For the number of characters shown when a post has a thumbnail, modify the 400 value.

    * If you want larger thumbnail, modify the 160 (height) and 180 (width) values in red.


    6. Finally, save the changes by clicking on “save changes” button and then you’re done.

      You can also use a plugin called ultimate shortcodes and put the text into accordian boxes etc.

    Here's the best answer: Get off of blogspot.com before you lose everything... including your sanity - and willingness to own your own home business. And update your content more frequently. Get Wordpress.
