   I would like to be able to set up my index page so that the visitor will only see excerpts of each blog post, then click a link that will take them to the full post. How do I do this? I am using the Twilight Crown Theme, incase that matters.

   In your index.php file, change the_content to the_excerpt. This is WordPress 101. In order for the individual post to display the full post, you'll need to make sure your theme has a single.php file. If it doesn't, you can create one by copying the index.php file and naming it single.php. And make sure it has the_content rather than the_excerpt.
