 * Hello , i have a wordpress with a streamline theme . its a great theme , i just
   cant figure out. on the main page home in my category i want to put a full post
   and it doesnt let me , just takes a part of it and gives me an option of read
   more .
    does anyone know how to bypass readmore option? thank you

 * With the help of the [Template Hierarchy](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy)
   article, determine what [Template](http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates) is displaying
   your posts (could be index.php). Then edit that [Template](http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates)
   and replace `the_excerpt();` with the [template tag](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags),
   [the_content()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_content).

 * Try changing this:
 *     ```
       <?php the_content_limit(400, "[".__("Read more", 'studiopress')."]"); ?>
       ```
   
 * to this:
 *     ```
       <?php the_content(); ?>
       ```
