I want to be able to manually adjust the length of the excerpt for my blog posts.
One way of doing that would be to use read more, but the read more does not show? Right now if I use the "readmore" for a blog post, the text (mer…) comes up. Is it possible to make (mer…) hidden?

Hi Albin,
They're simply not working, tried them 3 times but unfortunately without any success.
Can you please re-check them and come back here.

Hi Albin,
I have added this code in functions.php:
And it removed the excerpt from posts, now it only shows Read more as you suggested (you can change that text as well).
I hope this works fine for you.
Hi Arlind,
I must have been very unclear with what I wanted and I'm sorry for that.
I wanted to use the Read more tag as a way of manually choosing the excerpt length while not seeing the "Read me"-text.
So basically what I want you to change is: shorten the excerpt, but do not remove it. I want the excerpt to be no longer than 100 words (2 lines).
Hope it makes sense.
Thanks for the fast support!
