full posts on front page only

Hi, Mel, here’s the solution (but you will have to start using a child theme):

copy to your child theme content.php and change this line:

<?php if ( is_search() ) : // Only display Excerpts for Search ?>

to:

<?php if ( is_search() || is_paged() || is_archive() ) : // Display Excerpts for Search, Archives and additional pages of Index view ?>

If you want to add “…continue reading” link after the excerpt, please use this function in functions.php (it is temporarily because I will include it in the next version):

function tinyforge_new_excerpt_more( $more ) {
	return ' <a class="read-more" href="'. get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) . '">' . __('...continue reading <span class="meta-nav">→</span>', 'tinyforge') . '</a>';
}
add_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'tinyforge_new_excerpt_more' );

You can see example: http://mtomas.com/?s=theme

Mel,

you could have it as a parent theme by renaming the theme in style.css, but you would lose the capability to update the theme, when new version would arrive.

Another way would be to always have modified version of content.php as a backup and after every theme update, when all files would be replaced, you would reinstate your modified version.

In any case having your own child theme is the preferred way 😉

Just wait about a week and I will push new child theme version with the v1.5.8.

New version is here, follow tutorial at:

Yes, when you will download zip file, look under INC folder for another zip that will have to be extracted and uploaded separately, then copy content.php to to child from main theme and make that change.

copy whole file from main to child (and FTP from your PC), then open it and do changes.
