Excerpt on homepage
-
Hi,
Does anyone know how to show excerpt only on Bueno homepage? I want readers to easily share the article, without clicking the individual title after they finished reading the complete article. Most people are to lazy to do this.
Which upgrade to I need to purchase? Has anyone tried plugins such as “homepage excerpt” yet? Thanks in advance!The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We cannot use plugins on WordPress.com, but you can use Custom Excerpts with the Bueno theme

Thank you so much JustJennifer!! I decided to use the more-tag.
Is there by the way a way to put a thumbnail image on the “excerpt” to make the whole home page less boring? -
Have you scrolled down to”Featured Posts and Images” on the Bueno theme description page? http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/bueno/

Thank you Timethief! It seems now that I overthink the solution I need. May be what I need is just a way to show the share buttons and like buttons on the home page. I will start a new topic since this does not corresponds anymore to the title of my first question.
Thank you so much for your help. -
