Hello

I am using the theme as primarily a Blog site and have the Reading Settings set to “Your Latest Posts”. I would like to set a longer excerpt length for these posts. I understand this is possible with the Swift Page Builder and a Blog element, but how is it possible using the standard blog set-up with “Your Latest Posts”?

Thank you!

Hi

I’m afraid the theme does the control the length of the excerpt for the default wordpress archive. A better way would be to create a page, add the blog element, and set that page as the home page. This will allow you to customise the page as you wish, and it will still show the latest posts
