  I instilled the theme Scratchpad. I really like the design but I have a problem with the blog page. After I instilled, it shows the entire blog posts on the blog page. I would like to change to just a few lines for each post and have the [read more] button to click to the whole post. Is there any way to adjust that?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Note that support for the self-hosted version of Scratchpad that you’re using is provided in the WordPress.org forums at https://wordpress.org/support/theme/scratchpad/

  That said, this is not a theme issue. Scratchpad doesn’t use automatic excerpts, so the only way to show an excerpt on the blog page is to create them manually by adding the more-block to the posts at the point where you want the preview to cut off.

  You can find the documentation on using that block here:

  https://wordpress.org/support/article/more-block/

  For more help with core WordPress features for the open source version you’re using on your site, you can ask at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
