Okay so right now only intro/full mode work when creating a blog using the joomla storage system. The problem is that I cannot limit the amount of information placed within the "Blog Intro" field. So some of my intro are about 4 sentences long and then some are 4 paragraphs long (I did this for testing purposes).

Make sure to update CB and CB add-ons to latest nightly build in CB -> Plugins -> Install/Update (click the "Refresh" button), and update. I believe there were some fixes in CB blogs in the last week. Although I don't think there is an option to limit intros at this time.

The read more feature in Joomla just splits an article in half during save. That doesn't apply to CB Blogs though so if you need it split you need to use the intro and full mode instead of the single input mode at this time.

The reason I'm using into/full is because "full" mode by itself isn't currently working yet.

That should now be fixed in latest CB build released today.
