The Excerpt introduced to WordPress after 0.71 version but it can control after 2.9 version and it refers to an optional summary or description of a post; that we can say, a post summary. Automatic excerpt which contains first 55 words of the post’s content will be displayed unless you do not provide an explicit excerpt to a post (in the post editor’s optional excerpt field).
if your current theme showing content only in blog post or article, remember the theme using wordpress content function to display it.
Its pretty simple to change the default excerpt length in wordpress. Suppose you want to exceed your length to 100 words then paste the below code in function.php file.
