How to show more than the thread title on forum page?

[cspielman]

On my forum page I have articles coming from an RSS feed.

Currently the forum page shows the title of each article as the thread title.

How can I show a portion of the article content on the forum page below the thread title?

Ideally, I'd show the first paragraph of the article, or a specific number of characters.

I know there's a way to show a portion of the thread content by hovering over the thread link, but I want to show that content inline. And have a link to the thread below it.

Thanks.
