I successfully replaced get_content with get_excerpt() but the result is really plain so I then tried to add "Read More…" to the end of the except with get_excerpt('Read More…') but that doesn't work.

I saw something at codex about adding a section to the functions.php file but that REALLY didn't work.

Little help please?

Excerpts don't use a 'read more' link like using the more quicktag. But you can get them to do it by taking a look at this on the Codex:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_excerpt

Scroll down to the bottom where it says "Make the 'read more' link to the post'.
