title: Php/Wordpress: Storing post content into variable?
body: <p>When using the the_post() loop, how do I fetch the post data?
  I can't retrieve the post content data with the_content() because it automatically 'prints' the content on the screen.</p>
  
  <p>I need it to be stored in a value so I can manipulate it, I need to display only a small portion of the content for the headlines.</p>
