OR EMAILTrying A Different Front Page Design
I write way too many posts that fall off the front page before I’d like, so I’m playing around with a slighty different front page design. It’s basically showing 15 excerpts with cute little icons. The category and search results pages look similar to this design.
In case you’re wondering, it’s a matter of changing the front index.php to have < ?php the_excerpt> instead of the full content. Then you have to make sure all your posts have an image icon and a text excerpt in the Optional Excerpt field.
Anyhow, just testing; it’s easy enough to put this back the way it was if it doesn’t prove to be useful.
Note: I added a “Read the rest of this entry” link at reader Char’s suggestion, as clicking on the post title isn’t totally intuitive.

Hodson told me he said something in here that I'm supposed to listen to but now I can't remember what I was supposed to hear. -
