How to have Sticky Post on Toujours show excerpt only
-
How can I make the sticky post show the photo and excerpt only? The whole post is showing now and I just want the photo and excerpt.
Also, is there a way for the other posts to have excerpts only, too, or do the whole posts need to show? I’ve already clicked the ‘Summary’ box in Appearance – Reading.

Note that “the more tag” is not a theme-specific feature. There is also no global setting for it.
Also, note that the setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication in the exact spot you want the content to split off.
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 content does not display to you in preview mode but it will be there after the post is published.
Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of only SOME active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410

It was my understanding that the Toujours theme allowed for this with the sticky post. See demo here. Note the “Featured” post. This is what I’m after.
