  I would like to change my Depo Masthead blog so that it only displays the picture and a little bit of text in the post I made on the main page and not the entire story. I want it so people have to click on the post and expand the entire story to read it and not read it on the front page

  The main problem I have is that when I make a long post it stretches out all the tables on the main page and looks messy. Fixing the table lengths on the main page so that they don’t stretch to the length of the post would work. Any suggestions?

  I have the upgraded CSS but am just not amazing at it and could use some help. Thanks

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

  You can split the contents on your home page using either of these two methods:

  1) The more tag (“read more…”)

  2) Custom excerpt

  Number 1 only. DePo Masthead doesn’t support excerpts.
