the theme uses the_content()
in the archives and index pages (in loop.php); with a hardcoded ‘read-more’ which always shows, independent of the use of the ‘more tag’.
however, I would expect that the output of each post in the category archive should stop at the ‘more tag’ position.
using the excerpt field will have no effect on the output.
if you want the excerpt in the category arcive (and possibly in any archive) you need to edit loop.php;
find:
<?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : ?>
<?php the_content( __( '', 'Rbox' ) ); ?>
<div class="clear"></div>
<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '' . __( 'Pages:', 'Rbox' ), 'after' => '' ) ); ?>
<?php else : ?>
change it to:
<?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<div class="clear"></div>
<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '' . __( 'Pages:', 'Rbox' ), 'after' => '' ) ); ?>
<?php else : ?>

Thank you, couldn’t even get the creator of the theme to help me.
Now, I have a automatic excerpt that WP makes for me, how can I get the custom excerpt that I have posted to show in my categorized post?
Oh nevermind, fixed it myself.
