Hi,

I've been doing some changes to the template in the last weeks and I'm having trouble with the excerpt. If you visit nbamaniacs.com you can notice the homepage doesn't show any excerpt (Although the Blog options under Configure is set to show excerpt)

I initially though that this was made via hooks or filters but I haven't found anything in the code. My goal is to recover the excerpt and then hide it via css so other 3rd party tools can still read that excerpt.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi there,

What's your setting in Customizer > Blog > Blog post content?

Hi Leo, it's set to Show excerpt (instead of show full post)

I tried every single combination but I can't find anything.

Is there a filter or hook I can use to override settings and show excerpts in the homepage?

Thanks!

Does the excerpt length have a value in the Blog section of the Customizer?

You also have this CSS added:

.entry-summary {
    display: none;
}

Hi Tom,

That was the issue! Thanks! When I tested with value, it wasn't displaying in the preview because of the CSS :D
