You can try following code though:<br /> <pre><code>if (is_single()){ $current_post[&#39;content&#39;] = get_the_content(); }else{ $current_post[&#39;content&#39;] = get_the_excerpt(); } $current_post[&#39;content&#39;] .= &#39;&lt;a href=&quot;&#39;. get_permalink() .&#39;&quot; rel=&quot;bookmark&quot; title=&quot;&#39; . __(&#39;Permanent Link:&#39;,&#39;avia_framework&#39;).&#39; &#39;. get_the_title() .&#39;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;more-link-arrow&quot;&gt;Read more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&#39;;</code></pre> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82645 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 11:43:23 +0000 JayButcher 82645@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I've tried using this but I'm struggling</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/excerpts-no-read-more-link" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/excerpts-no-read-more-link</a></p> <p>Jay </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82631 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 09:34:16 +0000 JayButcher 82631@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Devin - that's excellent and exactly what I was looking for...is there anyway of forcing a "Read More" tag in those excerpts at all? No biggie if not. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82560 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 18:19:53 +0000 Devin 82560@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey Jay,</p> <p>No it doesn't by default but you can change the file to do that if you'd like. You'll need to open includes&gt;loop-index.php and search for:<br /> <code>$current_post[&#39;content&#39;] = get_the_content(__(&#39;Read more&#39;,&#39;avia_framework&#39;).&#39;&lt;span class=&quot;more-link-arrow&quot;&gt;</code><br /> replace it with:<br /> <code>$current_post[&#39;content&#39;] = get_the_excerpt(__(&#39;Read more&#39;,&#39;avia_framework&#39;).&#39;&lt;span class=&quot;more-link-arrow&quot;&gt;</code></p> <p>and save the file back on the server. Now the blog overview page will use the excerpt instead.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82550 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 16:53:11 +0000 JayButcher 82550@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Ok one more quick question on this...</p> <p>If I want to craft my own excerpts rather than using the More Tag...does Eunoia use the excerpt field?</p> <p>Jay </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82538 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 15:10:36 +0000 Devin 82538@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Glad we could help :)</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82536 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 14:41:43 +0000 JayButcher 82536@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Excellent, should have thought about that!

You can find the More Tag button in the first row of the visual editor toolbar or by pressing Alt+Shift+T .</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/show-blog-summary-on-home-page#post-82505 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 13:21:18 +0000 JayButcher 82505@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I have used Eunoia template builder to setup the home page and want to have the blog showing 3 most recent posts but only in summary format not the full post. The options don't allow me to do this. What is the solution? Please help! </p>
