Blog: Making Excerpts

[netsavy006]

Currently on my blog, it shows my latest 10 posts (with the full story).

How do I change it so that it will show my posts as excerpts?

Thanks,
~ Andy

Really i cant get what you are saying!

Btw what blog script you use. While asking help post more info!

I use Wordpress.

On the blog's main page, it will show my latest 10 articles in full.

I want the articles to only show up as an excerpt (portion of the article).

I don't know if this helps, but I hope it does.

You have to add the "Insert More Tag" into your actual post where you want it to cut off. You can find this on tool bar.

The way lunar states is one method, but there is a much easier and better one. Drop me a PM and I will help you when I get home

Why not explain here? I'd be interested to know other methods of how to do it--especially if it's easier--and I'm sure others would too.

Well, it is easier in the sense that you don't need to add a code every time you write a blog post. More complicated in the way that you actually need to edit the theme code.
