  • Hello rajkarn1009,

    You will need to edit the content.php file of the Twenty Seventeen Theme to show excerpt instead of the full content posts.

    what should i update in content.php ? can you help me out? i dont have much technical knowledge.

    You can find the content.php file in the location below

    /wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen/template-parts/post/

    Look for this code in the content.php file

    <div class=”entry-content”>
    <?php
    /* translators: %s: Name of current post */
    the_content( sprintf(
    __( ‘Continue reading<span class=”screen-reader-text”> “%s”</span>’, ‘twentyseventeen’ ),
    get_the_title()
    ) );

    wp_link_pages( array(
    ‘before’ => ‘<div class=”page-links”>’ . __( ‘Pages:’, ‘twentyseventeen’ ),
    ‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
    ‘link_before’ => ‘<span class=”page-number”>’,
    ‘link_after’ => ‘</span>’,
    ) );
    ?>
    </div><!– .entry-content –>

    REPLACE THE CODE ABOVE WITH:

    <div class=”entry-content”>
    <?php
    if ( is_single() ) :
    /* translators: %s: Name of current post */
    the_content( sprintf(
    __( ‘Continue reading<span class=”screen-reader-text”> “%s”</span>’, ‘twentyseventeen’ ),
    get_the_title()
    ) );

    wp_link_pages( array(
    ‘before’ => ‘<div class=”page-links”>’ . __( ‘Pages:’, ‘twentyseventeen’ ),
    ‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
    ‘link_before’ => ‘<span class=”page-number”>’,
    ‘link_after’ => ‘</span>’,
    ) );
    else :

    the_excerpt( sprintf(
    __( ‘Continue reading<span class=”screen-reader-text”> “%s”</span>’, ‘twentyseventeen’ ),
    get_the_title()
    ) );

    wp_link_pages( array(
    ‘before’ => ‘<div class=”page-links”>’ . __( ‘Pages:’, ‘twentyseventeen’ ),
    ‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
    ‘link_before’ => ‘<span class=”page-number”>’,
    ‘link_after’ => ‘</span>’,
    ) );
    endif;
    ?>
    </div><!– .entry-content –>
