Condensing blog posts
-
Hi there,
I want to be able to condense my blog posts so that the whole blog does not show up on the front page and instead, users just click on the title if they want to read more.I tried different formats to see if this is how I did it, but the only one that worked was ‘gallery’ but now it says ‘This gallery contains 1 photo’ and has the word ‘gallery’ at the top of each post which is not ideal.
Can someone help please?
Thanks,
SusanThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/Then go to > Settings > Reading and select “summary” rather than “full text” for the RSS Feed entry and then click “save changes” .
For each article in a feed, show
_ Full text
_ Summary
“save changes”Also note that you can use a theme designed to display only excerpts on the front page automatically. This is a list of active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
