  I’ve been trying to change the way my blog posts appear on the site, changing the settings on the admin page to ‘3 posts’ and ‘summaries’ only, but I’m not seeing the changes on my actual blog. Yes, I’m hitting saved. Still nothing.

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

  Hi there,

  You have your reading settings set to have the blog page show only 3 posts, but you also have infinite scroll enabled lower down on the settings page. With infinite scroll active, the next 7 posts load automatically each time you get to the bottom of the page.

  The “Summary” setting you see there applies only to your site’s feed, not to how it looks on the Blog page. To have your posts show only a summary on the blog page you’ll need to add the More tag to each individual post, as your theme does not have an option for automatic excerpts:

  More Tag
