   I'm trying to upload pictures to my page but you have to go directly to the post before they will appear.

   Heres an example.

   http://www.blakesmoore.com/photos/

   Now click on the word Turkey or Guitar artwork and you will see the pictures.

   I want the images to be displayed ont he homepage like they are on my friends website. http://www.mrdanielknight.com/blog/

   PLEASE help. Thanks

   Your theme may be using <?php the_excerpt();?> instead of <?php the_content();?> in its template files. Simply edit the relevant template files and replace <?php the_excerpt();?> with <?php the_content();?>.

   Start with your theme's index.php template file.

   I have just searched my index.php file for <?php the_excerpt();?> and nothing in there says this. any ideas?

   look again:

   <?php the_excerpt('Read the rest of this entry &raquo;'); ?>

   (the parameter in the brackets does not make any sense, as the function 'the_excerpt()' does not use arguments)

   I changed

   <?php the_excerpt('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?>

   to

   <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?>

   and now i get this error when i go to my site

   Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /websites/123reg/LinuxPackage23/bl/ak/es/blakesmoore.com/public_html/photos/index.php on line 1

   please help!

   The code change should not have caused this error. Perhaps you inadvertently removed more than you should have?

   I'm sure that is all i have changed. I downloaded the theme again and then changed it and still have the same error.

    Then either there's a bug in the theme or you're making a mistake when editing the theme template file.
