Category View - Read More issue was created by Caleb Taulbee
It seems that when I'm looking at a page with k2 category view that it is showing each of my items with full text and not just intro text. I've checked all the category settings for both the main category and the subcategory as well as the menu level category. What am i doing wrong?

Thanks
Caleb

Ok i kind of figured it out. On Category settings i set an intro text limitation of 150. That fixed it - but now my preview images are gone. :(

If you use word limit, then all HTML tags will be stripped.
You should probably use K2's images (upload them through the image tab) and not insert them in the editor manually.
Another approach would be manually specifying an introtext for each item.

Thanks For the Reply,
Is there a way to do what i need without using word limit? I really prefer to continue using my current image display option.

Yes you can manually specify an introtext. Either use the read more button or enable though K2's settings a seperate editor for introtext.

Thanks a lot Krikor. I used the "Read More" and it worked.

The only thing is when you access the full article, there is blank space between the intro text and the rest of the article.

How can I remove this?

You probably have empty paragraphs in your editor or the template you are using has really big margins.
