Dear Support,

I just intalled auroradawn template at my computer.
I would like the excerpts to apper in the front page (and not the post itself)

Could you please help me in this issue?

Please take a look at the attached file in order to understand my question.

Thank you very much,
Lucas

This plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-teaser/) does an excellent job of allowing post excerpts.

You should also be able to change your "reading" settings (Under the "Settings" menu) to have the front page display "excerpts".

Hi  Tristan.

The reading settings under setting menu does not provide this option to display excerpts.
If you have a chance please take a look at the attachement. There is an option to use the  "summary" for articles but I checked and when this option is activated the excerpts does not replace the post in the front page.
Do you believe it is because the template does not offer this option?

This pluggin you told me about is great and  helped me and I could do what I wanted too anyway.

Thank you very much!

If that plugin does what you needed, then I guess the setting doesn't really matter.

The theme should be able to support excerpts, but sometimes that "feature" of Wordpress has issues.

Glad I was able to help!
