+There are three ways to define the [content summary]:
+
+1. Let Hugo create the summary based on the first 70 words. You can change the number of words by setting the `summaryLength` in your site configuration.
+2. Manually split the content with a `<--more-->` tag in markdown. Everything before the tag is included in the summary.
+3. Create a `summary` field in front matter.
+
+{{% note %}}
+The `Truncated` method returns `false` if you define the summary in front matter.
+{{% /note %}}
+
+The `Truncated` method returns `true` if the content length exceeds the summary length. This is useful for rendering a "read more" link:
+
+```go-html-template
+{{ range .Pages }}
+  <h2><a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">{{ .LinkTitle }}</a></h2>
+  {{ .Summary }}
+  {{ if .Truncated }}
+    <a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">Read more...</a>
+  {{ end }}
+{{ end }}
+```
