posting to a static page

  • Please I need help. I want my static page to display teasers or excepts of the post i make from my site.I want to display up to ten teasers in the order of the post regardless of its category or page. This was omitted in the documentation-customizing static pages. Please help. Thanks.

  • it wasn’t omitted, its not part of static pages – its a part of working with excerpts.. Look at excerpts in the docuumentation and you can learn all about it.

    First, the template (php file in your theme folder) that displays the page has to call in the_excerpt rather than the_content.

    Then you can manually enter your excerpts or leave that box empty to show the default number of characters from the beginning of the post. Look for the Excerpt box on the screen where you add or edit a post.
