Blog post not showing up/invisible

    Hello,

    I am having trouble with my posts and blog page. I want my blog page to show a summary of the posts. Now, this use to happened I’m not sure what changed to make it not show up anymore. It seems as though the post summary is invisible? When I was looking at the page confused as to what happened to make this post disappear out of nowhere, I noticed that if I dragged my mouse over the blank space that the summary use to be, it made a hand icon rather than the default arrow icon, so I clicked it and the Post picture I set showed up then I returned to the blank blog page and clicked where the continue reading would be and the whole post opened up in a new page? The post is showing up in the sidebar (title and picture) but for whatever reason I cannot get it to show up as a summary on the blog page.

    Any help?? I really wanted to get this site up over a week ago and I’ve been contacting the developers and they aren’t much help…

    Ps. I am also new to WordPress

    Thanks!!

    try a few basic troubleshooting steps:
    – Flushing any caching plugins you might be running, as well as server and/or browser caches.
    – deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
    – If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the unedited default Twenty Fifteen theme for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).
    – If that does not resolve the issue, try resetting the plugins foldervia FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
    – If all the above steps do not resolve the issue, then try MANUAL updating. Download a fresh copy of the WordPress .zip file to your computer, unzip it, and use that to copy up all files and folders EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory. You may need to delete the old copies of files & folder on your server before uploading the new ones. Read the Manual Update directions first.
    – If you haven’t already done, always backup everything (including your database) before doing any actions, just in case something really goes wrong.
