  Two questions:

  1. When i post a blog thats, lets say, 500 words. What I want to have happen is have it cut off and a ‘read more’ to appear so you can click and go to the url. Instead, it is completely visible, which makes the site appear bad because you have to scroll so far down for one post… how can i fix this.

  2. Sometimes, when I hit ‘preview’, instead of the site looking like what I have been customizing, it goes to the basic theme from the beginning when i first choose a theme, and it looks like my work is all lost. I can always find my stuff again, but i dont get why this happens, and is this an issue when I get Business Plan and make the website public?

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