  How do I save the settings so that only previews of the posts come up, and not the entire post? Like athroughzbooks.wordpress.com has hers set up; that’s the only way I know how to describe it. Small snippets of each post, instead of having to scroll down the entire page.

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

  Hi there,

  You can insert the “more” tag into posts to create excerpts:

  I don’t want to have to use the “More” tag. Several other themes allow you to automatically publish just small previews/summaries of each post so you don’t have to insert the tag in each one. Does this theme not allow you to do so?

  Unfortunately, your current theme – Nucleare – does not support the “Content Options” which would allow that.

  Customizer: Content Options

  athroughzbooks.wordpress.com uses a theme called Dara which does support that feature.
