    Hi

    I’ve been working on my site using the Edin Theme (which i love) but I’d like to change the way my blog post page is showing all different posts. Currently it’s one big list, but I’d like it to only show the image, header + excerpt from every post with a read more link underneath.

    Is that possible? I’ve tried changing the blog page lay-out and different post format lay-out but nothing seemed to work.

    My blog page can be seen here: http://discoverwithemmy.com/my-blog/

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

    Hi there!

    There isn’t a way to edit how the default blog displays on Edin’s post page exactly, however you could look into using the Display Posts Shortcode on a page, if you’d like.

    For example, if you make a page then want to show title, excerpt, and right-aligned thumbnail for each post, you could add this shortcode:

    [display-posts include_excerpt="true" image_size="thumbnail" wrapper="div"]

    There are several variations of what/how to display things you can check out here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/display-posts-shortcode/

    However, one thing to keep in mind, is the shortcode is limited to displaying 100 posts, so it will go up to 100 but not beyond (while the standard page will keep loading more posts, as long as you have them).

    Let me know if you have any questions! :)
