Change Title of Text of 3rd Box
To change title text of 3rd box, must manually edit file,
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
sudo vi /opt/web/php/sunrisemontessori.ca/blog/wp-content/themes/Modest/home.php |
Change Amount of Data in Sections
To control the amount of data shown in bottom sections either use "More" tag or use Excerpt (which gives more control).
The More tag would be great, except it does not generate a button to actually get to the article.

- ePanel
- General Settings
- General
- Use Excerpt When Defined
However it does not appear to work with the modest theme. So instead, to use excerpt change home.php as follows,
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
<?php the_content(""); ?> |
...
Though not evident we can use tags in the Excerpt area too.
