the_excerpt() in content.php and get_template_part() in single.php
the_content() does not grab the PHP file content.php, it simply displays a Post’s content. Likewise, the_excerpt() grabs the excerpt of a post. get_template_part simply finds a file within your theme named whatever you put in, with an optional suffix. get_template_part( ‘content’ ); // content.php get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘my_page’ ); // content-my_page.php in order for make different … Read more

Yes, you can do that, but you’ll need to tweak the <?php the_excerpt(); ?> function. This is a good article on how to do that: http://aaronrussell.co.uk/legacy/improving-wordpress-the_excerpt/ To sum up the article in case it goes away, put this in your theme’s functions.php file: function improved_trim_excerpt($text) { global $post; if ( ” == $text ) { … Read more

You can set the number of words to excerpt with the filter excerpt_length (it defaults to 55 … Read more
Excerpts are not displayed by a shortcode on category pages
I have reproduced your environment using the same theme and the same plugin. Out of the box, the plugin does not register the CPT with excerpt.

My only question is: how and why were you getting excerpts on singular … Read more
