Dreamwidth Cut Button Complaint

 Ugh, this Dreamwidth Cut Button sometimes…

I make sure it's covered and then after posting the WHOLE message appears right under the cut visible for everyone to see without eve(n)(r) needing the cut!

Dreamwidth's rich text editor is notoriously funky... I've had a lot of issues with it in the past >:T If you're comfortable with some basic html, I definitely recommend using the html post editor over the rich text one. It's a lot more reliable and gives you a lot more control over how your posts turn out.

It looks like you do have to highlight the text you want under the cut, but like meridan_rose said, the <cut> tag works wonders. DW's FAQ entry on cuts is pretty informative!
