Hi, I already learned that the excerpt has to be set manually if the layout editor is in use in a blog post.
Here: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/blog-excerpt-not-displayed/
To be honest, I think this is not a very smart solution and there should be a way to have an automated excerpt.
The current mode causes a plus on work and the risk that changes, made to the text, are not displayed because the excerpt is not updated.
I really would appreciate if the TEAM offers a smarter solution to this issue.

Hey WebbR,
Thanks for feedback, it’s much appreciated. We’ll take it into consideration for a future release of the theme.
Best regards,
Rikard
Hey Rikard, this sounds very good to me, do you know if there is a “quick&dirty” solution? Like a funktion or something?
Hi,
We don’t have anything like that to offer unfortunately. The whole idea behind the layout builder is that you have the option to decide yourself exactly which content goes into the post, and that includes the excerpt.
Best regards,
Rikard
OK Rikard, thank you for the answer, and as I saw in other postings here in the Forums the current behavior is at least confusing to many users.
It would make so mutch more sense to have an excerpt because you can choose in the blog-display settings if you want to show it.
I’m looking forward to a solution.
Have a nice Day!
