Yep, WPyogi is correct. You will have to follow his link to create a excerpt. It looks like your theme is from themeforest. Before creating a child theme (which you should have before making changes to functions.php) and then finding which page is being loaded I would see if your theme has the functionality in it already. You should ask at themeforest.

If there isn’t I would follow WPyogi’s link, create a child then create a custom template for your blog page where you can make changes to the loop that will only affect blog-1

I think having someone do all the code for something like this is a little out of the scope of the Hacks forums. I would check Contact Form 7’s page here. Adding file uploading and a front end post function is a little more advanced then Contact Form 7’s purpose I believe.

I’m not great at php. But you should be able to add a counter to the foreach statement that breaks when you’ve reached 5. You can try this:

$i=0;
                $output = "\t<ul class=\"events_list\">\n";
		foreach ($events as $event) {
                        if($i==5) break;
			$event_link = get_permalink($event->id);
			$event_date = date(get_option('date_format'), strtotime($event->meta_value));
			$output .= "\t\t<li><a href=\"{$event_link}\">{$event->post_title}</a> ({$event_date})</li>\n";
                        $i++;
		}

As far as the structure of your page. It looks like this:

<header id="branding">
   <nav id="access">
      Menu bar
   </nav>
</header>

your #access is 100%. a 100% of its parent container (currently #branding). #branding has a max-width of 1440px. So on a large screen a 100$ of #branding is maxed at 1440px.

it is now showing h2{font-size:140%;color:#05AFF2} It could have taken a while because you are using a minified version that is coming from a cdn

Sorry, I think I understand now. /blog-1/ is a page that you created that is showing your current blog roll? How did you get /blog-1/ to show your current blog posts? Page-template? Or is it an archive page that has been customized?

If none of your efforts are showing an excerpt it means that the php page that is being loaded isn’t calling for the the_excerpt in the loop; it is calling for the the_content. I’m just trying to help you find the right php page to edit.

Sorry but what page are you trying to show the excerpt on exactly?

Let me know if that doesn’t work

Okay. First go to admin panel – settings – permalinks. Just go there. Then go to your site (clear all cache) and see if the pictures show

Your images are hard linked to staging.inboundnow.tv
Change their address to /wp-content/uploads/2012/08/imagename.xxx instead of staging.inboundnow.tv/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/imagename.xxx.

However, if they aren’t hardcoded. Visit Permalinks on your admin and it will update your domain I believe for your media uses.

Did you recently change domain names?

Look on the code of the page (index.php probably if you’re on the front page). Is it calling for the_content() in the loop or the_excerpt()?

W3 won’t be the problem if you’re emptying cache. Most of your h1/h2 are links. So put your color change to ‘h1 a’ as some class with ‘h1 a’ will override your ‘h1’

too be more specific. Your 100% width on #access is in the header with an id of #branding which has a max-width of 1440px

You set a max-width: 1440px to the #access ul.
