Hello,
I like to make the title of each article (in its preview form) a link to the rest of the article. In short, have the read more link = the topic title. I tried to href the {readmore_link} tag, but that didn't work. Any suggestions? Thank you.

{site_url}/article.php?story={story_id}
should do the trick.
bye, Dirk

When I do that, the actual place the browser tries to go to is www.mysite.com/{site_url}/article.php?story={story_id}, not www.mysite.com/article.php?story=id#.
Am I not doing something correctly?
And thank you for the response Dirk!

Sorry I got it! I don't know what I did wrong the first time. Thanks again.

Hey! I'd like to know exactly how you did that. I tried to use href in the title but it got stripped out. Let me know details!
Thanks,

I was using dreamweaver to paste the code as an href, and when I looked at the actual code, it wasn't exactly what I wanted (weird characters and such). Just make sure to examine the code: <a href="{site_url}/article.php?story={story_id}">{story_title}</a>

Do you put the href code in the title field?

No, you have to change the story template files.

Lestat sent me his storytext file.
Thanks both for your help.
