 * Sorry about that:
    I changed my website to use summaries instead of showing the
   whole post. So I put a paragraph of information in the custom excerpt box but
   I want a link at the bottom like “Read more..”
 * here is part the index.php of the regulus theme:
 * // single page
    // ———– if( !is_single() ) {
 *  if ( $usePassword ) { echo “<div class=\”passwordPost\”>”; }
 *  if ( $pageDisplay == 0 ) {
    the_excerpt(); } else { the_content(); }
 *  if ( $usePassword ) { echo “</div>”; }
 *  } else {
 *  if ( $usePassword ) { echo “<div class=\”passwordPost\”>”; }
    the_content();
 *  if ( $usePassword ) { echo “</div>”; }
    }
