    hi there!

    just a little question. Normally on my homepage i’ve also posts without any content but the post thumbnail (let’s take for example, only an image). I would like to create a rule on the content.php which could say: if there is no content (or excerpt) don’t echo read more.

    I’m not able to translate this sentence in php;

    thanks in advance!!

    hi, thanks for the answer!

    sorry i forgoto to say the theme! it’s a twentytwelve child theme! 

    <div class="entry-summary">
			<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
			<a href="<?php echo get_permalink(); ?>"> Read More...</a>

		</div><!-- .entry-summary -->
		<?php else : ?>
		<div class="entry-content">
			<?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>', 'twentytwelve' ) ); ?>
			<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-links">' . __( 'Pages:', 'twentytwelve' ), 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>
		</div><!-- .entry-content -->
		<?php endif; ?>

    Which template file in your child theme is that code from?

    thanks, at the end i was able to do it with the more tag; i changed the excerpt with the content() and put the tag in every post ! ??
