The excerpt macro is used to mark a part of a page's content as its summary. By itself, the excerpt macro does not change the display of a page. However, defining an excerpt enables other macros such as 'excerpt-include' and 'blog-posts' macros to display a summary of a page's content.
You can only have one excerpt for a page.
