    Sorry but I cannot find how to show how much of the post is shown by this command. Can you help?

    Is it like @@postteaser”24″ to show 24 lines?

    @@postteaser

    Description: Post’s content up to ”

    Can be used in:

    Post notification email body

    Hi David,

    Thanks for taking Post Notif for a spin!

    Your question made me realize that the FAQ has a glaring issue; a badly-quoted string is being interpreted literally by the browser, so it is not showing you anything useful (unless you happen to look at the page source!). Let me make a new attempt at it, here:

    7. @@postteaser
    * Description: Post’s content up to <!--more-->

    Just to be clear, it does NOT allow you to specify a number of lines to show.

    Thanks for identifying this; I will fix the FAQ with the new release.

    Thanks,
    Devon

    Hi David,

    OK, this has been corrected in the FAQ; thanks again for calling my attention to it.

    Thanks,
    Devon

    Devon,
    Thank very much for your reply. I understand know how (I think) to use the <more> tage but I am actually still unable to see any text when I use the @@postteaser tag. I just see blank lines instead of any sort of teaser. Here’s what I have on the Post Notif config page:

    Hi @@firstname,<br />
<br />
ISS Parent Portal has a new post called "@@posttitle".<br/>
<br/>
Here's the direct link to the post:<br />@@permalink<br />
<br />
Here's a teaser of the post:<br><br />@@postteaser<br />
<br />
<br/>
@@signature<br /><br />

    Any ideas?

    Hi again Devon,
    I think I have it working now. I just had not actually added the “more” tag. I assumed it was implied at the end of the post, ooops!

    Thanks for your help and the great plugin!
