    I would really like to use excerpts for my lengthy posts, but would like to have the photos that are in the posts be included in the excerpts. Is that possible? The way it is now, when I choose excerpts, only the text shows up until the reader clicks on “read more.” I think having a photo on the beginning of the post would make the reader more likely to want to click on the “read more.” Can you help with that?

    In a post that has multiple photos, is there a way to have only ONE of the photos included before the “read more” prompt? I see that in a post that has multiple photos that all of the photos are included, which is making the post longer than I was hoping….

    Try paste below

    .archive .entry-content figure[id^="attachment"],
.home .entry-content figure[id^="attachment"]{
    display:none;
}
.archive .entry-content figure[id^="attachment"]:nth-of-type(1),
.home .entry-content figure[id^="attachment"]:nth-of-type(1){
    display:block;
}

    This style needs caption with image.
