    Hello,

    I’m looking to show full posts on the index page. at the moment i just see excerpts and no idea how to change it.

    im not sure if this is a simple or complicated fix.

    Thanks

    open content_home.php and find

    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

    replace with

    <?php the_post(); ?>

    @aaron – Please don’t do that!

    @aylon – To change the index page to show full content rather than the excerpt please create a child theme first: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    Then copy content-home.php in to your child theme folder and proceed to make your edits – you’ll need to change line 20 from <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
    to <?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">→</span>', 'itek' ) ); ?>

    There are few other things that will need adjusting in that file i.e removing the read more button.

    For your convenience you can grab the ready made child theme here: http://www.wpstrapcode.com/free-downloads (iTek Base Child Theme)
