    I have added blog posts but it does not show excerpts from each post on my blog page. Other themes show excerpt on the post page but I don’t see how to modify this.

    Please advise

    Thank you

    Hello Paul,

    You’ll need to insert a “More” tag in the place where you want your more button. TF doesn’t allow us anymore to alter the length of the content and this is the only method now.

    Cheers!

    I don’t understand? All I want to do is having a little content displayed from the blog post on the blog page so people can read a little bit about the post and then click read more if they are interested.

    Please explain

    Yes, when you edit a post, on the editor you’ll see a button named “more”. Click on it to insert a more tag in the place where you want the excerpt to finish and your content will only be displayed until the more tag.

    Cheers!

    I went to editor and did not see a button named more. I attached a screenshot of admin area for blog.

    Please advise

    Thank you

    Oh I see now. Click on the top right button named “Screen options” and check the “Excerpt” option. Then, under the editor, you’ll see the box when you can insert your short intro text.

    Cheers!
