I love the framework!</p> <p>I have two remaining issues that I'm left scratching my head about. Perhaps someone can explain how I can:</p> <p>1. Change the blog page template to display only a set amount of words from the post, such as 250 (or insert text from the 'Excerpt' post field)? Here's the page in question: <a href="http://beta.superyachtsinc.com/?page_id=14" rel="nofollow">http://beta.superyachtsinc.com/?page_id=14</a></p> <p>2. On the blog page itself, the post title does not appear at the top. Any idea where I went wrong? Here's an example of that: <a href="http://beta.superyachtsinc.com/?p=214" rel="nofollow">http://beta.superyachtsinc.com/?p=214</a></p> <p>Any help would be appreciated!</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Ansel Taft </p>
