Hide Excerpt on Pages

[Phillip Allen]

I want to hide the excerpt on everywhere but homepage. When I hide what I find with CSS the excerpt size doesn’t shrink down.  Thoughts?

The correct way to do this is to leave the excerpt empty on those pages where you do not want to display an excerpt.

I hope I have understood your question correctly. Please correct me if not.

I can’t leave it empty because I am using it as a featured section.

 

So what would the CSS be to hide it and fix the sizing issue?

OK, I don’t really understand why you would add an excerpt to a page and then hide it with CSS, but anyway here is the CSS code to hide the page excerpt – add this to Customize > Additional CSS:

.main-excerpt {
    display: none;
}

There shouldn’t be a sizing issue as the above CSS will make the excerpt area appear to be not there so it will have zero height and zero width.
