    Hi,

    I want to remove this block of text in the posts page (image link). Apparently the “read more” in editor is not working.

    I just want to put “Read More” or the 1st sentence of the post.
    Is there any other way around this?

    Thanks

    what theme are youy using?

    your theme might be using ‘the_excerpt()’ instead of ‘the_content()’ in the index page template….

    It’s tech gostore. It’s not listed in themes.

    I understand that I need to use ‘the_excerpt()’ and include it in the template but how do I use it?

    I solved it:

    I went to content.php
    I looked for the “the_content();
    and replaced it with:

    <?php /*the_content();*/the_excerpt_max_words(30,$post); ?>

    30 is the number of words to be displayed.
