Excerpts are used to shorten your posts so that only part of the entry, usually the introduction or a summary of the post, is displayed, instead of the entire entry. Using excerpts is entirely optional.
You can configure your theme to show the Full content of each post or an Excerpt from the WPZOOM Theme Options.
1. Go to WPZOOM > Theme Options.
2. Navigate to General > Blog Page and choose your preferred option for Post Content.
The excerpt length can also be adjusted in some of our themes from that section, or you can manually adjust the excerpt text for each post individually by placing it in the Excerpt box.
Using the Classic Editor?
In the Classic Editor, the Excerpt box is hidden by default, so you’ll have to enable it from the Screen Options section:
By default, the excerpt “more” string at the end is set to “[…]“. To change the excerpt “more” string or remove it, add the following code to the functions.php file in your theme:
function new_excerpt_more( $more ) {
return '[.....]';
}
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');
If you prefer to display the full content of your posts and still show only a portion of it on the home or archive pages, you can split it using the <!--more-->
quicktag.
