Your home page is set to display the four most recent articles from the blog category in a column. Then there are links to the 4 next oldest articles. You can change those numbers by editing the content options settings in the blog tab in your site administrator. There is a link to your site administrator in the top menu.
If you want to have your blog post broken into two parts, an introduction and then a full length separate page, use the Read More button to insert a break.
Your site has some commonly used modules already preconfigured. These include:
Each of these modules has many options which you can experiment with in the Module Manager in your site Administrator. Moving your mouse over a module and selecting the edit icon will take you to an edit screen for that module. Always be sure to save and close any module you edit.
