    Hi Bill,

    Is there anyway to only show snippets with a “Read more…” of each blog post on the actual page for that category rather than showing the full content of each blog?

    Greg,

    Great question. One option is to place a “more” tag in your posts where you’d like to have the content break in the blog archive view. WordPress will place a “more” link at that point that directs to the single view.

    If you’d like to change it without placing a more link, you can edit the theme a bit. Here’s how:

    1. Go to the Appearance section and select Edit.
    2. From the list of files on the right, choose archive.php and look for this spot:
      
      <?php the_content(__('Read more', 'organizedthemes'));?>
      
    3. Replace that with this:

    4. Save your changes.

    That will cause an excerpt to be displayed instead of the full content.

    If you have any questions or trouble, let me know.

    Enjoy your week,
    Bill
