    I’m working on a project using responsive theme. it’s an awesome theme and very flexible but I’m having issues with the blog display. I’m trying to display blogs in summary view with the ‘read more’ that users can click on to continue reading. I select the ‘blog summary’ template but still blog posts are showing full content. I go to settings and I select summary, but it’s still showing full content. this is puzzling me. I’m not a hardcore coder but I would think if you have a template that says ‘blog summary’, if you activate it, it should be displaying blog summary not full content. any assistance with this issue will be highly appreciated. thanks.

    that did it. thanks. but then I have this box ‘in archives’ that I want to get rid of altogether. if that hurdle is removed, then I consider problem solved. thanks again for your help.

    Glad to hear that, all right so lets to this as well.

    Copy blog-excerpt.php to your Child Theme. Open the Template and:

    Change:

    <div id="content-blog" class="grid col-620">

    To:

    <div id="content-blog" class="grid col-940">

    Now scroll all the way down, locate and remove this:

    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

    That’s about it,
    Emil

    P.S. here’s how that should look like.

    it worked. you’ve been very helpful. how do I make a donation to show appreciation? it’s a very nice and flexible theme. I’m sure I’m gonna use it for another project. thanks again.

    Hi Emil – I’m sorry but I am having the exact same problem where I’ve changed Reading settings (don’t have static page either), blog summary (template) is set on Blog Page, I even tried creating a new Blog Test page and nothing works. The page still shows the full summary.
