Blog page has no options for 'Read more' link / excerpt?

Hi

On your demo here - http://www.kriesi.at/themes/abundance/blog/ the blog page has 'Read more' and displays an excerpt. However on my blog page, which I've tried to create via the dynamic templates and an archive template, the whole post appears.

You can see what I mean here - http://smujy.com/magazine/blog/

That page is a category linked from the menu but the same happens if I try to use a dynamic template such as here - http://smujy.com/magazine/

There are only a couple of posts so far but I can't seem to work out how to make it work like the demo since we need the blog page to display only images and excerpts.

Can you direct me about what to do?

Thanks

Russ

Hi Russ,

Inside the content of the posts, try to add this code:

This is how to use it:
```
First paragraph....

Second paragraph...
```
This way, the content will be cut and a read more link will appear (plus you can control where the content will be cut). Also try to go to: Settings > Reading and set For each article in a feed, show to Summary. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Ismael
