A request for help: cut tags not working

[underused]

Hey all -

Can anyone tell me why my cut tags aren't working?

I've tried both HTML and the Rich Text Editor. It shows the "read more" but then also shows the rest of the post? When I go in to edit, the second </cut> is missing (even though it's there when I'm ready to post).

Ugh. Sorry.

This is very much a possibility. Borked HTML is also very good at messing up cuts.

Thanks for the suggestions. ☺ After I posted this we had a bunch of thunderstorms and our internet died, so I took the night off trying to figure it out. I'm sure it's exactly what you said (and I probably made it worse going from one editor to the other). I'm going to take another shot. Wish me luck!!

(Much belated, probably) luck!

It worked! But I have no idea how. I tried Rich Text and HTML again, and as a last resort the DW Markdown. Weirdly, I think the last one did the trick?!

That lemonade looks SO tasty!

Yay I'm glad you got it working!
