   Can someone tell me how to make the posts on the home page so they only show a couple inches of them and have the continue link so you have to open them up to see the rest.

   Thanks.

   Debbie Wood.

   the easiest way is inserting <!--more--> code in your post.

   you can also use

   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

   in the loop after checking if this is the home page

   Better use excerpt reloaded plugin, I'm using this plugin for past three years without any problems.

   Hi,

   Open index.php file of your theme and check for this:

   <?php the_contents(); ?>

   replace with:
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

   Thanks,

   Shane G.
