Issues with post summary vs full posts
-
Hey, I am having trouble with getting my posts to read on my site as a summary. I have checked my settings, it shows that I have selected summary. However on my site it shows the full post. Have I missed something? I am using the Matala theme.
Thanks for any advice!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
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.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. Here are the themes that do provide that feature > https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
To control the number of posts displayed on the front page go to > Dashboard > Settings > Reading
Blog pages show at most _ posts

Thanks so much! I have started using the “more tag”. It is exactly what I was looking for!
