Remove excerpts in list of posts by category

  • Hi there! I’m using the Blessing theme and would like for the blog roll or list of posts by category to be a simple list of the post titles that I can style. So it would not have any excerpts or full posts under each title.

    I’ve tried every suggestion I’ve found online for this topic and none have worked for my theme. I’ve also tried a few plugins that create table of contents and such but that didn’t fit the theme either. It seems like something that WP should offer as an easy option.

    I would appreciate any help someone could offer. Thank you!
