  I recently change my blog’s theme and this new theme show the full post on the main page. On the theme’s info page, the sample shows the preview version of the post, however, so I assume it is possible but I cannot find where that setting is.

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

  Have you used the “More tag” on your posts to show only the excerpts on the homepage and the full content on the post page? You can learn about it here. https://en.support.wordpress.com/more-tag/

  Does this help? Feel free to get back if you have questions.

  Hi there,

  To display the beginning excerpts of your posts you need to use the More tag as @strikebuys already suggested.

  If you have any other questions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to help.

  I’m new to blogging and my previous theme has that function built in. I added the “more tag” as you suggested and it works instantly. Thanks!
