switch latest posts to excerpt, not entire post

[fastpenguin91]

Hi all,

My goal is to only show a small portion of each blog post on my "latest blog posts" page instead of the entire post.

I'm using the Sample theme, and I tried in the "Reading settings" to adjust this setting: For each article in a feed, show:

I set that to "Summary" and I'm still getting the full posts on my "blog" page where it shows all the latest posts.

I've looked through the wordpress codex, and from my basic understanding this would have either been handled in the loop, or on some page with a get_recent_posts function, but I searched all the files and haven't been able to find a get_recent_posts function or anything that I think would switch the setting to only show a small excerpt of my post.

Any guidance on whether there is a way to adjust this in the admin area, or what part of the code I should be looking at?

Go to your Genesis > Theme Settings > Content Archives

Then choose post excerpts from the toggle.
