First thing, the title to the website isn't visible on the browser. How to I edit that?

How to make blog posts on the home page excepts, or shorter like the rest of the category blog pages?

How to get edit Log in box sizes. I can't find anything about that option on the s5 Boxes?

Is there away to get rid of the Log-in box?

Did you edit any of the files in the vertex folder of the theme?  The title is part of the core vertex code and should be functioning normally if you didn't change the code that adds it.

This WP support page should help with information on how to split your posts.  If you want to use the second option they mention, you can make the changes in "{themedir}/vertex/loop.php".

You should be able to edit the box widths on the "Shape 5 Plugins -> Shape 5 Box" page in WP Admin.

You can get rid of the login/register buttons by going into the theme options area and clearing out the fields that define the text for those buttons.

The excerpt part, the only code I see to edit is ---->

<?php echo apply_filters('the_content',do_shortcode( the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>') ) )); ?>

then I change
<?php echo apply_filters('the_content',do_shortcode( the_excerpt( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>') ) )); ?>

it changes the post into an excerpt on the home page AND the actual post.

Possible to be more specific, I'm familiar with coding but this theme is a different language to me.

Try this instead, it will use the excerpt version only if there are multiple posts in the loop for the active page:

Code:
<?php
     if(!is_singular){
          echo apply_filters('the_content',do_shortcode(the_excerpt( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>') ) ));
     }else{
          echo apply_filters('the_content',do_shortcode( the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>') ) ));
     }
?>

I completely understand.  The main complication is that I've had to rewrite code that was originally created on Joomla and make it work on WP.  I'm hoping to completely rewrite the WP version of the framework eventually, but I have no idea how long that will end up taking.

Correct.  In the place where it has the call for the post content, put in the code that will alternate between the two options based on the content type.

I'm not sure what you mean by making the title visible, but I would suggest that you disable "Raw HTML mode" on the advanced tab of the theme options area - that will stop the formatting from being removed from your posts.

I'm not sure why it's not working correctly for you, if you can provide FTP & login information, I can take a look at the code and try to see what I can do.

Afterthought - You may want to try adding the "more" tag in the page or defining actual excerpt text.  It may just not know where to break the text because you haven't told it what to do.
