  Hi, I am using the Yoko theme. In the home page (http://summerwellblog.wordpress.com/) it shows a column on the left of the content which says “July 2, 2013. Leave a comment”. This column disrupts the post design making all pictures out of line: How can I get rid of that column? otherwise, how can I get the home page posts to just show a snipped view from the my posts? Thanks :o)

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

  It cannot be hidden without purchasing an annually renewable Custom Design upgrade and doing the required CSS editing.

  Insert “the more tag” into your posts. Here’s the link to the support documentation on “the more tag” http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/
