  Hi,

  In the demo for Olsen, the blog posts that appear show only 3-4 lines with the “read more” under.
  However, on my website, the blog posts are like showing half of the articles. I need them to appear like in the demo.
  How do I do that?

  Thanks,
  Neha

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

  Hello Neha, to show the excerpts from the blog posts:

  1. Open theme customizer, and select Content Options. Then, you’ll find the option to choose between “Full post” and “Post excerpt.” Select “Full post” and publish the changes.

  2. Edit your post and add a read more tag. Click here to read more.

  Save the changes and you should now see the read more tag as shown in the demo.

  Hope this helps and have a great day!

  Hi,

  Thanks! This helps :)

  Another question – how do I make my Home page show only 5 blog posts and not more?

  Hi!

  Following up here for theakshaydhiman

  You should be able to limit the number of posts shown on the homepage on this page: https://wordpress.com/settings/writing Look for the option under the “Content Types” section.

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