  I’ve just built a blog at jenniferpirtle.com. I want to avoid having my ‘previous’ posts show up as excerpts (which they are currently doing). I’d like it to appear more like this site: https://austinkleon.com/

  Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
  Jennifer

  Hi there,

  The site you have at jenniferpirtle.com is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted at Godaddy.

  Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites hosted elsewhere; we can only assist with sites hosted on our servers. You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:
  https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/.

  You can find help with this and future support needs:

  1. Turn to the WordPress community forums (at WordPress.org): https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  2. It looks like you are using a custom 3rd party theme. For site layout adjustments, such as what you need right now, make sure to review the theme’s documentation, and reach out to the theme creators via their support channel as often as you require.

  Oops, my mistake! Thanks for the pointer – I’ll head over there. :)
