    Is there a way to turn off ALL excerpts from posts on the main blog page? ex:https://jsummers.info/the-hospitality-ceo-blog/

    You don’t have any automatic feature in this theme that places a “read more” element unless I insert that element in my post.

    Future theme development issue: You need to work on the blog on this theme more. Any business has a more vested interest in their content than is given in this theme.

    Hey Jeffrey,

    You have the read more link in some posts, there different options for the blog in Enfold, you can find them in the Theme options > Blog Layout tab.

    I know I have the “read more” links in some posts. I put them there. You can only do that manually from the classic editor. That doesn’t answer my question.

    I also know there are a FEW options in the blog layout tab. None of which addresses my question either. In fact, those options on the Blog Layout option page are about as minuscule as it gets. Meta Data & Links…that’s it.

    MOST premium themes have the ability to add the “read more” element automatically after you set the number of words to include in the excerpt or just draw from the excerpt.

    Your blog element options are some of the worst I’ve ever seen for a business theme.

    I would like you to address the issue I raised in my question on this thread. I know it will probably be, “there are no other options” but maybe there are.

    I post questions here to find more and better ways to use this theme. I don’t post questions here to have you tell me things I already know or to parrot back to me things I’ve already done.

    Hi,

    Try the following in quick css:

    .blog .entry-content p{
display:none;
}

.blog .entry-content p a.more-link{
display:block;
}

    Best regards,

    Jordan: That did NOT work in the Quick CSS but I added it to the customizer and it worked beautifully. Thank you. My faith in your abilities has been restored slightly. You’re still 1 for 3 which would get you drafted by most professional baseball teams.

    Haha, thank you my friend. Did you still need help on this specific issue or shall this one be closed?
