   I have worked on this for several hours now and I am hoping that someone will have an answer for me.
   When I include a photo in my post it will not show unless you click on "read more"...even if it is the only item in the post. I do not have this problem with any of my other blogs, but they are not in this theme or this version of WP.
   Also,the new theme I am using only shows a portion of each post. Is there a way to change that? I have checked "full text" in the reading settings.
   Thanks so much.

   Thanks Evita! I found this in the index.php

   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   </div>
   <p class="meta">" class="more">Read More      <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »', 'comments'); ?></p>
   </div>

   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   <h2 class="title">" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
   <p class="byline"><small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author() ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?></small></p>
   <div class="entry">
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   </div>

   However, I am not certain what to do next.
   thanks again

   Well, for a little while the photo showed in the post...until I made another post. Not only did the first post collapse, but then the newest post shows the narrative twice.

   I made the changes below. Gosh if anyone could possibly assist, I would be so grateful!

   <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><p class="meta">
   <h1 class="title">" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
   <p class="byline"><small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author() ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?></small></p>
   <div class="entry">
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   </div>
   <p class="meta"><?php
   // Display all content, including text below more
   $more = 1;
   the_content();
   ?>" class="more">Read More      <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »', 'comments'); ?><p class="meta">
   </div>

   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   If you use <?php the_excerpt(); ?> your image will not be visible, because WP strips out all HTML-Code.
   You have to use your own excerpt ("more" on writing page in admin), or a plugin like "the-excerpt-reloading".

   It seems you are using not your own design, so it will be better you ask the author of your design. Your code appeales a bit messy.
