    Great, that worked! Thanks!

    Only, now I realise that showing excepts means that the “Continue reading” button doesn’t appear. It’s more intuitive to me that a reader sees the button instead of having to click the title to see the pull post.

    Is there a way that I can couple this change to auto-displaying a “more” button for all posts?

    Thanks again!

    Thanks for that. My original file looks somewhat different though than what you indicated. Nevertheless, I copy-pasted your suggestion and replaced the original content and unfortunately it doesn’t seem to have worked.

    For the moment, I think I’ll just fall back to manually entering “more” breaks in my posts.

    Thanks!

    Thanks, I tried working with content.php first, but couldn’t get it to work. I spotted the the_content() call in content-single.php so thought I might try that instead.

    Unfortunately though, it doesn’t seem to be working in content.php as described in that post.

    This is the section of code that I thing is basically controlling the rendering:

    <?php if ( is_search() ) : // Only display Excerpts for Search ?>
    	<div class="entry-summary">
    		<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
    	</div><!-- .entry-summary -->
    	<?php else : ?>
    	<div class="entry-content">
    		<?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading', 'writr' ) ); ?>
    		<?php
    			wp_link_pages( array(
    				'before' => '<div class="page-links">' . __( 'Pages:', 'writr' ),
    				'after'  => '</div>',
    			) );
    		?>
    	</div><!-- .entry-content -->
    	<?php endif; ?>

    Is it possible that I can edit the the_content() call in the else branch otherwise? Since it takes arguments, I’m not sure if I can just replace the whole line <?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading', 'writr' ) ); ?> with a call to the_excerpt().

    Thanks!
