• When I publish a new post, the entire post is shown and not just the first couple of lines as is most common with other blogs

  • Hi

    Your theme is set up to display the full post, not an excerpt. If you want every post to display with only the first few lines, edit the index.php file in your theme folder /wp-content/themes/{theme-name}

    Change the_content to the_excerpt Leave everything after what was the_content the way it was i.e. the_content(‘stuff is here’) becomes the_excerpt(‘stuff is here’)

    Rather than changing the index.php file you can also insert a More tag in each post, which will cause a break at the insert point. This will need to be done on every post you want to display only a few lines.
