I propose the creation of articles on the page to enter a new field - a short version of the article (a summary). This field should be identical to the properties of the full version.

Why do we need it?
1. You can greatly simplify the news plugin, as well as the conclusion of the article in the sheets or even where.
2. theoretically could reduce the load on the engine, because in the same news he would not have to look for the tag "more", and immediately embed the entire short version.
3. It can be short and to the full version is absolutely different in content.
4. fundamentally solve the problems "more" inserted after unfinalized tag (if there is a check on a closed-unfinalized, it can be safely throw)
5. The tag "more" is losing its relevance and it can be easy to hammer (for new projects, at least).


Ability to write summaries of articles available in many engines (even the new version seditio it would:)), and it is really useful feature. Some may say that there is description, but it BB-text is not processed, there is a limitation of 255 characters, it serves as description in heder.

(had more written but lost it)
Well tag takes very little effort to parse, so its nothing to worry about.

In short what you want can be done by adding a new page field, that is what extra fields are designed for.

I really don't see any reason to add a new field to the core DB for this.

Is there anything special about "short version" or an extra field can handle it out of the box?

"short version" - identical "full version".

Короткая версия полностью идентична полной (с редактором, бб-кодами, кешем)Нужно это для создания полноценных превью к статьям. При помощи тега "more" это далеко не всегда возможно.

Suggestion accepted. I'll think it over, how it could be done better.
