    Hello –
    If you look here at my blog:
    http://www.speedynets.com/speedy-networks-blog/
    Sometimes the excerpt is shown.
    Sometimes not.
    How can I control?
    Thanks from a Forum Fan.
    🙂

    Hi There,

    Thanks for writing in! Since you are using post format, the excerpt could be displayed differently. And also, you have to make sure that each of you post has a description or an excerpt. WordPress generates an excerpt automatically by selecting the first 55 words of the post. If in case you are using Cornerstone, the auto excerpt fails because it will detect that the content is using shortcodes. This is what happen in your posts. There are no auto excerpt being generated since you have created your post with Cornerstone. To display the excerpt, you have to use the manual excerpts. To add an excerpt to a post, simply write one in the Excerpt field under the post edit box. Please see the screenshot below: http://prntscr.com/9j98do

    Excerpts are optional hand-crafted summaries of your content that can be used in your theme. Learn more about manual excerpts here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Excerpt

    Hope this helps.
