    Title is kinda self explanatory. I can't seem to be able to get the summaries to display- the full articles make the page huge and we want to display summaries only. But I can't find an option for it.

    Anyone got a fix? I am sure it's simple and I am just overlooking it- this is my first time working with wordpress.

    Generally speaking, in your index.php file, you can relplace <?php the_content(); ?> with <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

    If you need more assistance in editing the file, just check back.

    Or you can just put the more tage where you want the post to give a link to the rest of the article

    Thanks carl, I always forget that option :) Goes to prove the old adage, "more than one way to skin a cat"...
