Trying to make blog post on home page excerpt.

  • Hello everyone, I hope this question makes sense.

    On the home page I have “latest posts” set as home page. However, the home page shows the complete blog posts, one after another. I am wanting to just show a small picture and excerpt side by side for each blog post on home. Then when they click on post to read more, it should take them to blog post in full detail and length. Hope this makes sense. Ive tried adding featured image and write excerpt but that does not change anything on home page.

    You can see the first 2 blog posts on home page are NOT how I would like to display. The third blog post is exactly how i would like to display.

    Please let me know if this is a possibility. Thank you

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @recoil9 – as this is the default way the Twenty Twenty theme is set up to display – it won’t be possible to change that for the Home page (used when ‘Latest Posts’ is selected as the front page.

    Another approach you could try is to create a new page – and using the Block Editor, insert a Query Loop Block.

    Query Loop block

    It is highly flexible, so can display excerpt and image like you would prefer. Once that new page is set up – you can set it as a static front page for the site.

    Create a static front page

    Could you please give that a try and see how you go?
