How to add "Continue reading" post setting to Hemingway Rewritten Theme
-
Hi!
I would like to change the settings so that my posts are not showed fully but only the first part with the option of clicking on “Continue reading” to show the full post. On the demo of the Hemingway Rewritten theme this is possible. I haven’t succeeded in it though…
How do I do?Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no universal setting for the whole blog. This is done post by post.
Although you can set your RSS Feed to summary, that setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/The read more tag can be inserted once only into any post to change the front page or main page for posts display from full post to an excerpt. The split in the text does not display to you in preview mode but it will be there after the post is published.
Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of only SOME active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
