I want a page dedicated to a list of all blogs with a brief summary. It will be like an index. I have copied the index template and created an archive template. However, I don't know how to code the archive template to get what I want.

I saw an earlier posting from 2012 but this did not help any.

Can anyone help?

This is the post I was referring to. When I copy/paste this code no blogs appear. I saw the link at the bottom for reference but the link took me back to the original post.

When you say you want to see your blogs, do you mean 'posts'? An excerpt of each post?

Yes, a brief summary of the blog post.

Montezuma - by default - lists the posts as excerpts. So I'm not sure what you want, The number of posts that is shown is controled by the wordpress setting dashboard->settings->reading

I want this. http://peacefulwife.com/blog-timeline/

One page for blog titles and a brief summary.

That page looks like it just has the post titles
