• I am having difficulty finding where to change the _excerpt line to _content on the minimal xpert theme. If anybody could enlighten me as to where this is I would greatly appreciate it.

  • It depends upon what page you want to change. And you need to be looking for the_excerpt(); and replacing it with the_content();.

    I want to change the home page… i.e. the page where posts from the dashboard are displayed.

    Site url?

    Then try editing the theme’s index.php template file.

    Thanks esmi, but it isn’t there… All that is in index.php is

    [Code moderated as per the Forum Rules. Please use the pastebin]

    Try looking in post-entry.php.

    The closest I can find there is the_news_excerpt. Is this it maybe? Allthough, when I just tried to change this, it reverted some posts on the homepage back to an old version(Changed the alignment from left to center).

    To be honest esmi, I have scoured all of the templates and cannot find that line of code anywhere. Might it be written a different way?

    Is there a post.php file?

    No, just post-entry.php or single.php

    Then look in post-entry.php

    I looked there also, the closest thing I could find was the_news_excerpt, and changing this didn’t change anything, except reverted my posts from being left aligned, to being center aligned. I am trying to show the whole post, and remove the ‘read more’ link on minimal xpert theme.

    Next you need to find the the_news_excerpt() function in the theme’s functions.php file.

    I cannot find the_news_excerpt() in function.php. And having changed the post-entry.php I am now getting a fatal error

    ‘Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_news_content() in /home/bennoh/public_html/wp-content/themes/minimal-xpert/post-entry.php on line 13’
