Read more only on index.php

  • Hi,

    Is it possible to add “Read more” tag to post? on index.php we can see a part of post, but for example on archives.php “Read more” is disabled and we can see a full content of post?

    Please help.

    1) replace the_content by the_excerpt in the index.php and leave the archives.php alone. This is not too fancy, since you will not get a read more link, just a […]
    2) use an excerpt plugin such as Excerpt Editor (see Extend section) with which you can choose where to use the excerpts and where not.
