   excerpt excerpt

   You can create an Excerpt for your story. This is a summary of the story which will be displayed instead of the first few sentences of the post in places where the full text of the post is not displayed. This includes Post Lists added to pages on your sites and the main blog or news pages if you aren't displaying the full text of the posts. It is optional to create an excerpt; if you don't create an excerpt, your posts will be automatically truncated for display in these places.
   Create an excerpt for a post by adding it to the Excerpt box which is usually below the post. If you want to add an Excerpt but don't see the box, select the Screen Options tab at the top right of the screen (under the "Howdy...") and check the box for Excerpt. Excerpts are plain text because they are often displayed without formatting.
   
5. You can also specify the author of the post. The author is displayed on the post. If you want to change the author but don't see the meta-box, select the Screen Options tab at the top right of the screen (under the "Howdy...") and check the box for Author.
6. Set a featured image for the story. You can set a featured image for the story by clicking the Set featured image link in the Featured Image meta-box. The featured image will appear on the post page, and on the News/ Blog page with the post.
   
7. Give your post Categories and Tags. Use the Category and Tag meta-boxes to assign your post categories. These can help keep the posts organized, make it easier for visitors to your site to find information they are interested in, and be used to filter post feeds added to other pages.
8. If you would like to save your work to come back to without posting the content, click the Save Draft button in the Publish meta-box. Posts are not saved automatically.

   schedule schedule

   When you are ready to publish your post, click the blue Publish button. Similar to pages, you can schedule a post to be published at a certain time. Before publishing the post, click the Edit link next to Publish immediately in the Publish meta-box. Choose the date and time you wish to publish your post. The Publish button should switch to a Schedule button. Click the Schedule button to schedule your post for publication.
