  I created my first blog today, but when you go to the home page of the blog (runningboss.wordpress.com) the Title of the post shows, but there is no text from my blog post. Only a link that says “continue reading.”

  Is there a way to have either the whole post show up under the title or at least a preview of the text? I have even copied and pasted the first paragraph into the “Excerpt” portion on the edit page of the post, but still nothing shows.

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

  Morning!

  In your admin section, under settings select “reading”. You can set it to show the full text of your post there. It says “For each article in your feed show:” and the option is full text or summary.

  Thanks spooky crisp! I changed this setting AND realized I somehow had added a “more” break right before my text started. I removed the “more” break and set the setting to show full text. It’s working now!
