  Is there a way to set all posts to give only a summary on the front page with a few lines from the post, then in order to see the full post you click on it?

  I don’t know if I’m explaining it very well, but I don’t want the full article showing on the main page, just a brief summary.

  Thanks

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

  Or just switch to a theme that does that automatically.
