code change for full entry on index page not working - help! (4 posts)

    My Web site is http://www.wealthyappetite.com

    I want to show full entries on the index page and changed the .php files for the index and archive pages, changing the_excerpt() to the_content() in both files. (If you take a look at the source code of the page, you'll see that I did it.)

    However, only the excerpt still shows. I have no idea what I did wrong. Perhaps it's a simple error like a missing space or period somewhere, but I have no idea what's wrong!

    Please help!

    Hi,

    You need to add the_contents in page.php and have a check with that. Do not forget to remove that the_excerpt from that file.

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    It's because you're using the read more feature.

    Your posts likely have...

    <!--more--> somewhere in them

    The moment you do that, you create a cut off point for the rest of your entry..

    Thank you both for your help! I tried both solutions, but to no avail. It turns out I had a recommended plugin (Evermore) running that was truncating my content. Once I did an upgrade that deactivated that plugin, it fixed everything! But thanks for lending your time! It did help to lead me to my answer by recognizing what was holding me back.
