    Hi, the site where my blog posts are listed is showing the whole content of the blog post. I would like to change it to only showing a preview (Title, date, picture and excerpt and read more button) of the blog posts in a mosaic or list form. Is there a way to change that by using CSS codes?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Hi Chayleen!
    This can easily be done by clicking the “more” button when you edit a post. This will make a “<!–more–>” tag in your post. This will make it the end of the preview and add a “read more” button.

    I hope that helped you out ??

    I already have a read more button, even though the whole post is previewed.. the site concerned is https://www.chayleen.com/blog

    Yeah, the theme you are using has a custom read more button, but you need to define what to preview.

    Look at this example: https://postimg.org/image/hwqpu499j/

    At my example only the two first lines of the blog post will be previewed. You need to add the “<!–more–>” tag where you want the preview to end.

    I have a similar problem: If you go to aubergelodgingsandlibations.com and scroll down to the blog post, Popup Numéro Un, it’s all jumbled together even though I have spacing on the actual post. Looks pretty bad. I tried using <!–more–> after the “Why” line but it didn’t do anything. Is there any way for this theme to give a preview that pulls in the spacing and font as in the actual post?
