Can I use more tag on dara static front page?

  • ceremoniesbycharlottegreen · Member ·

    Id like to cut down the amount of text automatically visible on my static front page, with the option to continue reading. I have inserted the more tag which is visible on the page during editing. However its not working when I look at the website. Is this because its not supported on a static front page? Thanks

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    Are you referring to the three featured Pages? It’s possible to create a short, customized excerpt and Dara will use that in place of the text from the page.

    Here’s what it says on the Dara showcase page at https://wordpress.com/theme/dara :

    Front-page Featured Pages
    Front page Featured Pages

    On the theme demo, this section is populated with three Featured Pages*, each with a title, Featured Image, and excerpt. To re-create the same look, follow these directions:

    Publish the three pages you would like to feature on your front page, and upload Featured Images for each page.
    Go to Customizer → Theme Options.
    Use the three drop-down menus to select the pages you’d like to feature.
    Click Save and Publish.
    The pages featured in this area will automatically occupy the entire width of your site. For example, a single featured page will occupy the entire column, two Featured Pages will divide the space into two columns, three Featured Pages will divide the space into three columns.

    *For any of the featured pages selected for the front page, keep in mind that if you choose your posts page, the front page will display the excerpt and featured image of your latest blog post.
