On most, if not all, of my posts there will be a blockquote at the top of the post to introduce a theme or topic, followed by the content of the post. I only want them both to be displayed when the single post is being viewed, otherwise I'd like to have the excerpt in searches or through searching categories, etc. only show the content that I've created without displaying the blockquote up top. I've searched for this and results have come up, which I have tried unsuccessfully. The most relevant that I have found are here and here and here.
I have used the suggestion from alchymyth (in the 2nd link):
example:
body.category blockquote { display: none; }
and that removed the blockquote, but also the rest of the content after the blockquote in the excerpt.
Problem is, as I'm very new to both css and php I'm not entirely sure if I've been implementing any of the instructions correctly. If anyone knows how to do this, could you please clarify where and what (which _____.php or if in css) I need to edit. I am using twentyeleven and have a child theme setup and can introduce new code in a file there.
I am also running the Advanced Excerpt plugin, which seems to help somewhat with what I'd like to do, but also may be preventing changing some functionality.
The site is bitingmyteeth.org, but all visitors will get as of yet is an error404 as all of the posts and pages are set to private for now until I get the site functioning the way I'd like. Thanks for any and all help. (Sorry for long explanation, but wanted to be as thorough as I could...)
