    I don´t really understand the problem… I just see images on your blog. And one time there are the words “the new…” under the images. Can you explain it a bit better maybe?

    Please post the code from the theme index.php….

    Please put code in between backticks.

    Quite a busy little index file there, or at least in comparison to the one i use….

    Looks like the theme uses it’s own method to truncate the content of the posts…

    This area is where your problem posts are grabbed….

    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    <?php if ($post->ID == $featured_id) continue; ?>
    <?php $category = get_the_category(); $category = $category[0]; ?>
        <div class="post">
          <?php the_post_image(); ?>
          <h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
          <p><?php echo truncate($post->post_content, 204, '...'); ?></p>
          <div class="info">
            <span><?php the_time('n.j.y') ?></span>
         		<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($category->cat_ID);?>" title="<?php echo $category->cat_name; ?>"><?php echo $category->cat_name; ?></a>
          	<?php comments_popup_link('No Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments', 'last'); ?>
            <div class="right quote"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">Read More</a></div>
            <div class="clear"></div>
          </div>
        </div>

        <div class="hr"><hr /></div>

    And it’s this line that truncates the post…

    <p><?php echo truncate($post->post_content, 204, '...'); ?></p>

    Now i have no idea how the theme is dealing with the content, there could also be a series of custom functions i’m not aware of…

    You could try changing that line to….

    <p><?php echo $post->post_content; ?></p>

    Or if that doesn’t work give this a try…

    <p><?php the_content(); ?></p>

    However seeing as the template/theme has some of it’s own custom code, code that i’m not very familiar with myself, the above suggestions may not work at all.

    Try them, if they don’t work, wait for someone else more in the know to reply here, or contact the author as he’ll have a better understanding of the existing functions at work in the theme.

    That did it! Thank you so much for your help, I was starting to loose the plot.

    I did try the author first as it was a paid theme but he seemed quite puzzled by it.

    The author was puzzled at making modifications to his own code?

    Wow, perhaps he’s chopping code from other places are re-using… (perhaps not to – speculation)

    It’s pretty straight-forward though i was a little concerned it may not play with any other custom queries or functions that might exist in the theme.

    If it works, great!! 🙂
