  Hi, how do I show only summary/excerpts of posts for Reddle theme? My posts tend to be long with pictures, and it makes the front page tedious.

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

  One way is by using the more tag. I know it may not be the greatest way but it creates a break point on the front page and themes support it by creating a “continue reading” link.

  Hope that helps a little. :)

  Hi, thanks for your reply! I tried that more tag actually, but no success. I will try it again though….

  Note that the more tag does not display when you are in post preview mode but it will be there when the post is published.

  Yes, that was my mistake- checking the previews only. The page looks more decent now. Thank you all!
