  Hello, I am using the theme Dara. I have a static page (home) and I’m using the featured content option. I would like the featured content to be a very short excerpt along with a photo, instead I have a complete paragraph. How can I shorten the text?

  Thanks in advanced for your help.

  Regards,
  Nichole

  Hi @ngladney!

  Do you mean the Featured Pages on the front page (News, Featured Work, and Support)?

  If so, you can give each of those pages an Excerpt by editing them My Site > Pages and typing whatever you would like in the Excerpt box under More Options in the menu on the left.

  I’m referring to the theme options at the lower end of the front page. Will you instructions of including an excerpt help?
