Since you are including html in your posts, it is a bit difficult...

I am using markdown for blogitizor, so the html always comes out clean...

snip = 2000 #num characters by default

{{=WIKI(page.content[:snip], extras={
                    'code-color': {'noclasses': True},
                    'footnotes': None,
                    'code-friendly': None,
                })
{{if snip != -1:}}
                    {{=A('{...(more)...}', _href=url)}}
                {{pass}}


In your case however, we need to find the index of [more] and slice
everything past it out.

i = post.content.find('[more]')
content = post.content[:i] + A("more", href=URL(...))
