    Is there a way for only the first X-number of words of a post to show, and then users would have to click a link to read the rest? I thought choosing "Summary" in Options would do that, but after looking at it again, it seems to only be for "Syndication Feeds." Thanks.

    the_excerpt() instead of the_content() or use the more tag in all posts if you want to use the_content().

    That works, but is there an automatic way to do it, so that all posts stop at a certain number of words or the first paragraph or something, without having to put in the more tag? Thanks.

    Cool! That looks like it'll do just what I need! Thanks!
