   Here is the link: http://www.simplypoliticsblog.com

   The "reading" settings in WP are set to show only 4 posts on the home page, and to show the full text. But I'm assuming it's coded into the theme to only show an excerpt of each post because those settings aren't working. How do I change this to show the full text?

   If more info is needed, let me know! Thanks!

   Hello,
   <?php the_content(); ?>
   gives you the full article.

   You can customise it :

   I figured out how to change the first post, but the subsequent posts still show the excerpt. I guess I can't find where in the code to change those. That link helped a little, though! Thanks!

   The settings will show in a feed - is that what you are looking at?
   Go to the index.php file, and where ever it says
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   change it to
   <?php the_content(); ?>
   Feel free to email me if you want: kennethwatt(at)technofinger[dot]com.
