Been struggling with this, it works for me sometime and not the other time.
When I create a new page, and input content, I visit the newly created page and find that I have to click on "read more" to view the rest of the content.
How do I show all the content without having to click on "read more"?

Break
Are you sure you are visiting the page itself and not an overview with teasers?
If you wish to have full length teasers, add
<!--break-->at the end of your post.If you always want to have full length teasers go to Administer > Contents > Configure and set the length of the trimmed posts to unlimited (won't affect old posts).
Confusion?
If you are actually 'visiting the newly created page' you generally will see the whole thing. The 'read more' link only appears on the summary lists (ie lists of multiple nodes).
There are various ways of controlling what happens on those listing pages. You can select how many characters before an automatic cut happens, you can use the <!--break--> doodah to put the cut where you like, or you can use the excerpt module to give you a standalone excerpt field for those summaries.
You could try putting the break comment in at the bottom of your stories maybe. That should put the whole story in the summaries (I think).

It worked....by adding <!--break-->
By adding
it shows everything on the page, but then what is the point of having the option "Unlimited posts" in Node - Configure?
I would like to show everything without having to resort to using
.
and not only that, my other 'page' shows everything, only one node, the home page , the front page does not show everything.
Am I missing something?
Any other option?
Did you read this bit
on /admin/node/configure ?
Did you try it on a new node?
What are you trying to achieve? I can't quite understand what you are describing.
If you want that node to be your front page, enter that node to be the front page instead of using /node as the front page. /node is a summary listing of nodes (emphasis on the plural) which is why you are getting the read more links and teasers. If you just want one full node to be the front page, set it in /admin/settings to be the front page.
