Use a read-more link to focus on your lead sentences, then link readers to the full-version on your blog. Read-more links can go into the text or caption for any post type, except for chat posts.

1. When using the rich-text editor, identify a spot in your text for the break. Place your cursor there and press the enter key to add a new blank line.
   
2. A circled plus-sign icon will appear to the left. Click the plus sign, and four icons will appear.
   
3. Click the fourth icon — the gray bar with three white dots — to add a read-more link.
   
4. Tumblr inserts a “Keep reading” line. The read-more link is in place.
   
5. Publish the post — or queue, schedule or save as a draft.

Update: Tumblr has a keyboard shortcut for the read more link. While in the post form, press Command + Shift + K (Mac) or Ctrl + Shift + K (Windows).

Notes:

• Type “:readmore:” without the quote in a new paragraph, click enter! You will produce a fine line that looks like this ➡ “———–more———–”
• You can type Read More after you are done editing your post, just like on Website; Click enter in between the paragraph, do the “:readmore:” enter once again, and bam!!
• I love the fact even though we are like editing the post again it didn’t vanish like how the website Read More did!
• You can move around the Read More once it made to any place just like you move photos around!

Tumblr ‘How To’s Masterlist

through Chrome browser on laptop & mobile

This is in accordance with software updates of Tumblr until 5th December 2020.

Let’s say this is your post:

Step 1: After whichever paragraph you want to add [keep reading], click enter to create a new paragraph.

2. Write :readmore: (I am only boldening to highlight it)

Thereafter, it would look like this:

Ah! Brilliant! I did not know this was possible on mobile!

Use "Read More" breaks to shorten long posts and make your blog more visually appealing. Readers will still be able to see the first part of your post on your blog page, and can click the "Read More" link at the end to view the post in its entirety. By taking advantage of this feature, you can fit more of your posts on a single screen, and your followers don't have to contend with one post filling up their entire dashboard.

Click the "Text" posting option on your Tumblr dashboard to create a new post. To add the "Read More" link to a text post you already published, open the post in edit mode.

Compose your post as you would normally. If you plan to add images to your text post, you can insert them now.

Position your cursor at the point where you want to insert the link break, and then click the Insert Read More Break button in the posting window. The icon looks like a dotted line between two solid lines.

Click "Post" or "Save Post" when done. The "Read More" link appears in the post on your main blog page and on your followers' dashboards. Clicking the link opens the full post on a separate page.

Tips

The above steps work only when you use Tumblr's default rich-text editor to compose your posts. If you changed your Tumblr settings to use the plain text editor instead, you can insert a "Read More" link by typing "<!-- more -->" (without quotes) into your post at the point where you want to insert the link.
