Hi there,
all posts on in this category: are longer than the minimum excerpt lengths. However the link is missing on some posts.
I think this is also an issue with self-hosted blogs.
regards,
Martin
The blog I need help with is strangerinberlin.wordpress.com.
Hi Martin. That's the way that particular theme works. See here for an explanation and a workaround.

Hi,
I'm not sure... I know that different themes handle the output on these pages differently. The point is that in my example, there should be a "continue reading link" ("Weiterlesen →" in this german setup) after every excerpt!
regards,
Martin
As far as I can see, if there's a more tag in the post the excerpt gets generated from beginning to the position of this tag. Now if there are less words in this excerpt than the minimum excerpt word length the continue reading link is missing and the function has no chance to recognise this because it only gets the already shortened excerpt and not the whole post content!
Best suggestion is to contact the Theme group when they return - I have marked this to be moved to the Theme section of the Forum that they monitor.
