 * Hi there,
    Could I customise the way GeneratePress lists the blog entries so 
   that the featured image is a small thumbnail and aligned right of the post summary
   text (oh yeah and do you support just the excerpt text coming through on blog
   listing and not all of the post text?). I want users to be able to quickly scan
   through the posts and read 1-2 sentence summaries of them – not the whole article.
 * Also, can I make it so the featured image appears in the blog listing (in the
   format that I suggested above) but not have it appear at the top of the actual
   post above the title text?
 * Assuming that these may be options I would need to edit in functions.php or another
   php page file. I made an earlier enquiry about using child themes and that is
   how I would intend to make these types of customisations.
 * Thanks Tom!

 * Hi there,
 * 1. This is possible with some functions and some custom CSS, and it’s also possible
   using our Blog add-on while using the Customizer. It allows you to resize the
   images and align them to your liking. Might be worth checking out 🙂
 * 2. You can set your blogs to display an excerpt in “Customize > Blog > Blog Content”.
 * 3. To not show the featured image on the individual post, you can add this CSS:
 *     ```
       .page-header-image-single {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if you need more info 🙂

 * Awesome stuff man! Works great. *slaps forehead* yes I should have thought about
   doing (3) via css.
 * Yes it seems your addons are good value for making customisations easy. Will 
   continue to evaluate this theme and play with it some more.
 * Thanks for taking the time out to help me out and reply to this forum post.
