Can we have an option where I continue to use {{ .Content }} and yet have an option to truncate posts at the point where I specify the  tag in my posts? Using summary truncates all posts on the homepage.

Method 1 This approach essentially disables automatic summary splitting on your site. In your site configuration: summaryLength = 999999 # Tolstoy's War and Peace has around 600000 words. Then in your template you can do: {{ .Summary }} This will return a stripped version of .Content unless you …

I see what you mean. Thanks for the extra information that helped me understand better. This is what I have in my /layouts/index.html: {{ define "main" }} {{ $posts := where site.RegularPages "Type" "post" }} {{ $grouped := $posts.GroupByDate "2006-01-02" }} {{ $paginated := (.Paginate ($groupe…

Your problem statement and desired outcome are difficult to understand. Can you provide a link to the public repository for your project? It would save some time… Also, you reference “/layouts/post/summary.html” but that isn’t called anywhere in your example.

The expectation is a site that we can build, not just a piece of it. See https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/requesting-help/9132 . Let us see your code Include a link to the source code repository of your project, because we really need the context of seeing your templates and partials to be able to h…
