How to summarize the blogs on the main page? (4 posts)

    I am a wordpress/blogging newbie, and am trying to figure out all the processes to setting up a blog. I think I've done fairly well so far, but wanted to know how to set up the front page, so the whole blog does not show up.

    I couldnt' seem to find it anywhere in the settings page, so if anyone could help me figure it out, I would love it.

    If I go to my blog: http://www.originalhinal.com, it shows the entire blog there. Does it just automatically summarize it when there are more than one blogs, or do I have to change the setting somewhere?

    Thanks a bunch! :)

    When you say "blog" do you mean "post"? If yes, change:

    <?php the_content(); ?>

    to

    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

    in the index.php of your theme.
