  Hi

  I don’t like my current theme but only using it because it has the excerpt feature. Is there a better looking theme with excerpt feature

  When and how often are new themes released

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi @koolbeanz247, best looking is subjective, and it’s hard to know what you like. Almost all of the new themes will let you add excerpts.

  For the theme you’re using, try editing the front page and adding this block:

  https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/blog-posts-block/

  It has an option to show excerpts.

  Yes but I’m talking about themes that automatically have the except feature cuz I don’t wanna do it manually

  My theme automatically has the excerpt feature but I don’t like my current theme. That’s why I was asking nicer themes that automatically have the excerpt feature

  Hi @koolbeanz247,

  The following themes should have automatic blog excerpts: https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/blog-excerpts/

  Hope that helps.

  I’m not sure we can answer that for you since what is “nice looking” can be personal and vary from person to person. Did any of the themes here catch your eye? https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/blog-excerpts/

  Another option is the themes here: https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/full-site-editing/

  The second link is to our most modern themes, the ones that use our “full site editing” tools so you can customize them to your heart’s content. You could actually think of these more of a starting point for a custom look you may be after.

  Do you happen to have any sites (does not have to be WordPress) that you are drawing inspiration from or trying to emulate? It may help as a frame of reference if you can show us some sites that you think are “nice looking” and from there we can suggest themes that would make a good starting point for creating something similar.

  Thanks for the additional info!
