For changing your content to brief content, you dont need to edit your theme each pages. most blog owner does this way. but now here im giving you solution to show brief on your main pages like index, search, category without editing those pages one by one.

So here is the solution

What you need to do just open your theme function.php page and add below codes.

<blockquote>
add_filter('the_content', 'Show-excerpts');
 
function Show-excerpts($content = false) {
 if(is_front_page() || is_archive() || is_search()) :
  global $post;
  $content = $post-&gt;post_excerpt;
  if($content) :
   $content = apply_filters('the_excerpt', $content);
  else :
   $content = $post-&gt;post_content;
   $excerpt_length = 55; ############## add your word count
   $words = explode(' ', $content, $excerpt_length + 1);
   if(count($words) &gt; $excerpt_length) :
    array_pop($words);
    array_push($words, '...');
    $content = implode(' ', $words);
   endif;
   $content = '&lt;p&gt;' . $content . '&lt;/p&gt;';
