Show excerpt and read more link on sticky posts
-
Hello guys,
Can you please tell me how to show excerpts and a “read more” link on a sticky post instead of just the title.
I am currently using Twenty Fourteen theme.
Thanks!

I’m sorry but we cannot provide accurate answers to any blogger who fails to provide the exact URL starting with http:// for the exact blog they refer to so we can verify where it is hosted. Please do that now.
To link your blog to your username (providing it has no mature content) see here please http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2007/10/06/link-your-username-to-your-blog/

The 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/Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. Here are the themes that do provide that feature > https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410

I’ve tried to replicate your situation and when I make a post sticky in Twenty Fourteen it automatically shows a few lines of text and a “continue reading” link, as well as the title, category and tags, the only difference is that it shows “sticky” instead of the date. What post type are you using? Could you provide a link to your blog so I can take a closer look?

Know that placing the more tag in a sticky post is not different from placing it in an individual post that is not a sticky post.
