    Hello People I hope all is well today.
    My sites front page is coming along with the help I'm getting here. I could use some more assistance at this time. First, could someone explain to me how to change the featured content area on my front page to only show an excerpt of the content.

    Then how would I put blog post images and excerpts on my front page beneath my featured page content excerpt? Can you advise? Help Greatly appreciated.

    Hi,

    Sorry that your post went unanswered for so long.
    The posts on this forum are mostly answered by volunteers and sometimes questions are overlooked or get pushed out-of-view.

    I hope you found answers to your questions.

    Just in case you didn't know, you can also ask questions in the Facebook group (https://facebook.com/groups/genesiswp) and the Slack group (https://genesis.community/slack).
