Welcome the myReadMore word press plugin homepage.
This plugin is intended to increase Word Press accessibility by solving a hyperlink repetition problem in the default “read more” link of all excerpted posts.
There are many plugins available that simply customize the read more link, this is not just one more of them:
myReadMore is aimed at accessibility and not cosmetics.
This is what makes it original. It creates dynamic hyperlinks to all your posts, making them precise and accessible.

Facts:
- Most of the times you will not show all your posts content in a listing or in the first page of your website, since it simply takes too much precious “real-estate” prime space.
- Most of the times after a few “teasing” lines of text, you will use the MORE tag to break the post in an excerpt and (let’s say) the rest of the post.
As a result you will have a pretty formatted listing with a few strong lines of each post, and at the end of each, the monotonous “Read More…” link, that takes you to the full post.
Hyperlinks should clearly indicate their targets, so that users know in advance what to expect, should they choose to open them. To avoid this repetition, we need different text links to different content. This plugin is about achieving that in a straightforward way.
One of the many things automatic validations will immediately pick upon is the repetition of different hyperlinks with the same link text. The links actually will lead you to a complete different page, but the link text will always be the repetitive “read more” or similar. Now this is an accessibility obstacle since it confuses users about where to go.
How does “myReadMore” plugin work?
With this plugin you can replace the default “read more” with your chosen text AND adds a chosen number of the post-title-words to it, so all text links read different from each other.
This plug-in is all-user-level config-enabled. This means that “myReadMore admin panel” is present to all admin-level users (subscribers not included) and not only to the global administrator (admin)
