I also have the similar problem I just want to show the summary and not the entire post with a link like “continue reading” or read more button
please help
You can use the More tag in your content for each post, or create a child theme that uses the_excerpt instead of the_content.

Awesome, thank you so much!
use the ” the_excerpt” on your post templates then add below this code to functions.php
function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
return 20;
}
add_filter( ‘excerpt_length’, ‘custom_excerpt_length’, 999 );
function new_excerpt_more( $more ) {
return ‘ Read More‘;
}

That’s great! Sonai, where does the “the_excerpt” code go? I clearly know nothing here. When I do the “Insert More Tag”, it makes it work on my site, but it’s not good for RSS feed apps.
