Full posts on homepage but excerpts on category pages
-
Hi,
Right now both my homepage and category pages are showing the full posts. I would love for the category page to show only an except with a “continue reading” link. My theme is Twenty Twelve. Any advice appreciated!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi –
No problem, I’m happy to help. It sounds like you want to use the Read More Tag on this page?

@ajaramillo90 the read more tag can be added to each of those posts, if you’d like. Just edit each one and insert the read more tag where you’d like it:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/more-tag/One other option you could use is to make a blank static page, and add this shortcode to it:
[display-posts category="journal" include_excerpt="true"]
Then, change the link in your menu so it links to that page instead.

Do you know if I need to upgrade my account to have access to these settings? I have the personal account and I don’t see any of these features that are in the “Read More Tag” article.
Thanks!

Hi there,
Looks like you’re using the new block editor and therefore you need to follow these instructions:
With the More block you can truncate your blog entries so that only the first part of a post is displayed on your homepage.
