  (1) How can I just show my post title, including featured image and a first paragraph of my text? So not the whole post on my homepage?
  (2) Once you klick on the post, the featured image now shows with the name of my blog, deleted half of the picture. Can I remove this?

  Thanks!

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

  If you want to display only post excerpts on the front page or the blogs page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/

  The read more tag can be inserted once only into any post to change the front page or main page for posts display from full post to an excerpt. The split in the text does not display to you in preview mode but it will be there after the post is published.

  Please Read Go Back and Edit Posts https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/#go-back-and-edit-posts and be sure to click Update to publish the after your editing.
