• The home page shows excerpts always even if “Full Text” option is selected in General -> Reading -> “For each article in a feed, show”

    Toggling this value doesn’t seem to have an effect on the site at all.

    The logic in content.php that checks whether to show the post as a content or excerpt should take this value into account properly.

  • I came to support for this theme because i want to resolve the same exact issue. I don’t see a reply. How do I get the homepage to show full text posts? Here is my site: http://www.kitchenremodelingchicago.org/

    Please reply!

    Still intersted in theme developer response, but I resolved the issue using this tip:

    Thats the beauty of the theme. It uses the WordPress automatic excerpt by default. Unfortunatly it supports only the excerpts.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Excerpt

    You can try to swap the excerpt() with the content(). Open the content-*.php and replace this code:

    [ Moderator Note: Please post code or markup snippets between backticks or use the code button. ]

    <div class=”entry-summary”>
    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
    </div>

    with this:

    <div class=”entry-content”>
    <?php the_content(); ?>
    </div>

    Remember that the theme is not supporting the “full format” on the the blog main page. So with changing the code you maybe have to deal with additional issues, like formatting or images of the “full format”.

    Hi all
    I’ve been having the same problem and these posts have proved very useful – thank you.
    However, having tweaked the CSS (as B suggested) I’m still left with a “continue reading” link at the end of my article. Is there anyway to remove this? I would only need that link if the article continues onto the next page (which it doesn’t).
    I would be incredibly grateful for any advice – I’ve been tearing my hair out all weekend!
    Many thanks
    Gemma
