When K2 articles are displayed by category, it is set to only show the 50 fisrt words of the article and then the "read more..." text. However when K2 aticles are displayed by some specific tag, the articles are shown in full length and it looks terrible. Can it be somehow configured in a way that the "read more" text also appears when showing K2 articles by tag?

Thanks!

Thanks for all the overwhelming help. I could find some way to solve the problem and I'll post it here in case anyone finds the same situation as me:

Press the 'K2 Parameters' button and make sure the "read more" button is active and that the introtext is shown.

You can't set a limit to character display to the introtext when articles are displayed by tag (I don't know why). That means that all your articles will be displayed in full length unless your articles contain a "read more" pagebreak. So if your articles don't have it, you must edit them and add the "read-more" pagebreak.

Now you'll see that you can display K2 articles by tag with their corresponding "Read more..." links.
