ajolkerI am very new to this whole PHP and CSS thing; I'm talking grandparent level of understanding. Luckily I'm good at figuring stuff out.
Unfortunately, I hit a snag when trying to change the_content to the_excerpt in the Nest theme. I'm not using the absolute newest version but rather the version right before it.
When I change the code everything shows up correctly on my home page, but when I click the "continue reading" link or the post tile, it displays the excerpt text rather than the rest of the post.
I'm sure I'm just not adding something to the code that needs to be there. I'm sure I'm just changing one thing that blanket changes everything having to do with the content. I'm sure that I could be completely wrong about what I'm sure about.
If anyone has any ideas, I would be especially grateful. I'll post the code below. Also, my website is theepicgeek.com if you need to see the issue in action.
Thank you.
<?php global $nest_options; ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="column<?php nest_part_structure_class(); ?>">
<?php nest_part_page_meta(); ?>
<?php if( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div <?php post_class(); ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2 class="post-title"><?php if( is_single() || is_page() || is_attachment() ) : ?><?php the_title(); ?><?php else : ?>"><?php the_title(); ?><?php endif; ?></h2>
<?php if( !is_page() || $nest_options['is_display_post_meta_in_page'] ) : ?>
<div class="post-meta">
<div class="meta-pri"><?php _e( 'Posted on', 'nest' ); ?> <?php the_time( get_option( 'date_format' ) ); ?><?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'nest' ), ' | ', '' ); ?></div>
<div class="meta-sec"><span class="comments_popup_link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'No comments', 'nest' ), __( '1 comment', 'nest' ), __( '% comments', 'nest' ), '', __( 'Comments off', 'nest' ) ); ?></span><?php if ( is_singular() && comments_open() ) : ?><span class="comments_link">"><?php _e( 'Leave a comment', 'nest' ); ?></span><?php endif; ?></div>
<div class="clearfix"></div>
</div><!-- .post-meta -->
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="post-entry">
<?php if( ! is_singular() ) : ?><?php nest_the_thumbnail(); ?><?php endif; ?>
<?php the_excerpt( __( 'Continue Reading ...', 'nest' ) ); ?>
"> Read More...
<div class="clearfix"></div>
<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-link">' . __( 'Pages:', 'nest' ), 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>
</div><!-- .post-entry -->
blah blah blah.... the rest seems unimportant, but if you need to see it please let me know.
