My website is in my sig. I want my Posts on my homepage (which are below the featured posts area) to show a summary(like.. Click here to read the rest of this post), not the whole post, just a couple of lines and when they click on it, they get the whole post. Can anyone tell me how to do it ?
I think your blog theme is free theme so you need to make some changes in function.php and some more coding on the index.php or loop page. Just see the excerpt on wordpress and change according to itl deepesh pradhan
edit your template (index.php). Look for <?php the_content(); ?> and change it to <?php the_excerpt()?>. Hope this helps
Use the <--more!--> tag in your post at the right place, as i remember that will help for you to achieve this goal. You can also use excerpts like said above, but in that case you should write ecerpts when you write the post, although there are plugins to create excerpt from your post. You can also use a function to limit the number of words on the index page, but that is a more tricky one. Stick with excerpts ore the more tag.
