WordPress Excerpt

[John1]

I recently installed WordPress and I need to add the Advanced Excerpt to posts to save me from adding the more tags into each post. I installed the plugin and I can't find where to add the excerpt code.

In the index.php file I couldn't find

<?php the_content(); ?>

I am using the Mystique theme.

If it's not in the index.php, then it will most likely be in the main.php file.

The theme I am using has no main.php. I have tried all of the PHP files and couldn't find that code.

Check out single.php and about line 25, there is:

<span class="syntaxdefault"><?php&nbsp;the_content</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">(</span><span class="syntaxdefault">__</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">(</span><span class="syntaxstring">'More&nbsp;&gt;'</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">,&nbsp;</span><span class="syntaxstring">'mystique'</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">));&nbsp;</span><span class="syntaxdefault">?></span>
