   Hi all,

   I've seen a couple of other posts on this topic, but the solutions didn't work for me. My website has a photography category for which I want to display the full content in the archive; for the other categories, I just want to display the excerpts. I tried if statements like:

   <?php if (in_category( 'Photography' )): the_content(); else: the_excerpt(); ?>

   ... but I get unexpected T_ENDWHILE or in other attempts, it displays the excerpts and the full posts, or neither.

   I assume part of the problem is because the IF is inside a WHILE loop (and because I don't really know what I'm doing). Here is the full code of the archive page:

   Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

   Looks like you should be able to replace
   

   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

   with
   

   <?php if (in_category( 'Photography' )) {
   the_content();
   }else{
   the_excerpt();
   }
   ?>
