  Hi my blog is currently running on the Nucleare theme and I was wondering how to get only an excerpt of the blog post showing on the home page. When you go to the home page, you see the entire blog post, but I do not want that. How do I get to show only an excerpt? Thank you.

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

  Hello @angelaeschete,

  There are some themes that has Content Options, where you can choose the blog posts to only show the excerpt. However, it is not available for Nucleare theme.

  For your theme, if you’d like to display excerpts, you can insert the More tag into posts, wherever you’d like them to break: https://en.support.wordpress.com/more-tag/

  You can also find similar topic answered from this link.

  Let me know if you need further assistance.

  Regards,
  Rose
