    Hey. I have searched and read a lot of edits that can be made to show only excerpts on category pages. For the Social theme I cannot find the “the-post” the-excerpt” entries as described in so many instructions. Can you tell me which part of the theme to edit to get it to show only excerpts on category pages?

    I have made sure the settings say show only an excerpt in feed, not full post. Also, I do NOT want to use “read more” tags. I want this to be automatic. Thank you, and sorry if this has been addressed and I accidentally missed it.

    So to answer the first part:
    open content.php
    find
    the_content(__('Read more of this article »', 'social-magazine')); ?>
    change it to
    the_excerpt(); ?>
    and your good to go.

    The second part: delete the ‘Continue Reading’ text in functions.php

    I have a lot of ideas that I could make so if you guys would like to see an awesome premium paid version of this theme, let me know.
    Also if you like the theme a review would be awesome.

    Hello,
    I don’t use your theme, but my thoughts here. To me, I like good quality free themes, they are really hard to find. I offer my website 100% FREE to anyone who wants to use it. I offer a donation option in my menu. The problem with today’s world are the good WordPress themes are too expensive. All I want to do is make a good looking website without spending $100.00 on a theme and then having to renew the license for support and updates.
    If you can offer it for free, it will probably be downloaded and used a lot more as well.

    Remember, just my thoughts in to this. Thanks, have a nice night.

    Tech. themes are not 100 dollars. I am sure TM will not charge 100 for the theme. Yes, TM, I am VERY INTERESTED in your work. I really like your theme and the time you put into free support is amazing. But I reckon that is for another topic we will create later. Thank you for the answers. I will adjust my code and see what happens. Thank you!

    EDIT: THE TRICK FIXED MY PROBLEM!! all good now.
