I absolutely love the theme and the customization is wonderful. However, I'm having a little trouble with my blog page specifically.
I'd like my main blog page to display shortened article clips, with a "read more" option. Currently, it's displaying all posts in their entirety and in order, so it's not user-friendly.
You can do that by go to Customize > Standard & Classic Layout Options > and check to "Auto Render Post Excerpt"
Also, I recommend you a way to create a blog page better - by do following steps:
1/ Go to Dashboard > Settings > Reading > Front Page Displays > A Static Page > on "Posts Page" - select "-- Select--"
2/ Go to Pages > All Pages > edit your "Blog" page and select Template for this page is "Custom Blog Page" - Check this image
3/ Go to Customize > General Options > on "Category, Tags, Search, Archive Layout" > select any layout you want for your blog pageLayout of your blog page will follow layout you've selected here.
So helpful! I got my blog page looking much better. The only thing I couldn't do was Step 2, because when I click Pages > All Pages > edit "Blog" page, this is what I see.

Hi,
You didn't do step 1.
1/ Go to Dashboard > Settings > Reading > Front Page Displays > A Static Page > on "Posts Page" - select "-- Select--"
Let's do that

Hi! I did do step 1, but I didn't click save changes. *facepalm*
Got it working now and it looks amazing! Thanks so much!
