For many years I've opted to have the full article length show in the front page of vBulletin 4.2 CMS, but I'm now running a site that I need to have that "Read More" link at the bottom and only show a portion of the article, so that its all uniform and there are no gaps between articles. I've attached a screen shot of what I want to do with my articles. I know its a setting, but for the life of me I cannot find it since I have not used it in years. :( I've tried several things and none of them seem to work.

Here is what my basic article setup is like:

1. I'm using "Static Page" to create articles.

My current settings for an article:

Published = yes
Comments = off
Permission preview = yes
Display Title = yes
Display Author = no
Display Published Date = no
Full Display in Section Page = no
Display Updated Date = no
Display Pageviews = no
Show Ratings = no
Use Settings For: Content Page & Section Page
Show on Section Page = yes
Make available for subnav = no
Searchable = yes

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks. I can provide a link to the site via PM if you need to see the site. Its an adult site.

Nevermind, I have figured it out myself. :)
