 * I can’t quite understand what you’re trying to say. I hope the following solves
   your problem.
 * Copy index.php in the currently active theme folder and name it as search.php.
 * Find the instance of the following in search.php
 * `the_content()`
 * …and replace it with the following
 * `the_excerpt()`
