Yeah, several people have already asked this question alas without any answer yet….. I’ve been googling it too, but so far turned up no satisfactory results, besides creating a child theme, which apparently comes with its own challenges. 🙁
Many themes include it and it eludes me why it wouldn’t be a standard feature, to be able to select full or summary posts in the blog. To have to mech with child themes or manually inserting the read more tag seems rather a lot of bother over what likely is an easy line of code when creating the theme. What I would like to know is if this feature will be included in an update.
I’ve been looking into the themefiles. It seems the excerpt is in there, but somehow it isn’t called. I’m going to make a ticket for it, cause this really needs to be solved. 🙂
I’ve ust submitted a ticket: Ticket #39519
Hopefully it will be solved soon!
