How do I have gallery style front page postings?

    I think that’s the correct term. I could be totally wrong. I’m looking for some type of plugin that would allow me to have postings categorized on the front page, and all pages, just like it is on my website:

    I’m setting up a website for Monroe Jamison, and I’m trying to get the post layout to be the same, where it has a picture thumbnail, and it takes the first 100 words of the posting, and allows me to have 10 of these “post boxes” per page.

    Any ideas?

    I tried to find the rules here, but when I can’t get a question answered, do I reply to it here, or do I have to repost it?

    I was told when I had WordPress installed I could get support here.

    Under Settings in the WordPress dashboard, click on Reading, choose your latest posts, then the number of posts you want to show on the page – you have indicated that you want 10, then select summary instead of full text.
    Save it and hopefully that will put things the way you want them to be.

    The size and placement of the featured photo will be in the settings and css of your theme.

    It is currently set to that, and has been, but it still shows the full text of the postings:

    Any other ideas?

    It will depend on your theme – what you want is the excerpt – see:
