  Hi,
  I want my front page to only show the first paragraph of each blog not the whole post.
  How can I do this?

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

  Hi there. Unless you have one of the themes that automatically create post excerpts for the front page (there aren’t many of those), you’ll need to manually add the Read More tag to each post at the point you want it to cut off. Make sure you always add the tag on its own line and that there’s no other formatting like Bold or Paragraph Alignment active when you insert the tag.
