Making the homepage posts look like single posts

    Hey,

    Thanks for an awesome theme. Customizing it after installation was a breeze, and I’ve got just one step left until I launch my site.

    I’d like to display posts one underneath each other, in full – that is, without them being just the title and thumbnail on the left, something like:

    Post 1 title
    Post 1 content

    Post 2 title
    Post 2 content

    Of course, the date and other details should also be there. Basically, a form of the Standard List, but with the posts being displayed in full. I hope that makes sense.

    Hi andreiknox. Welcome to the Hueman forum. Try adding the following CSS to a child theme style.css file or a plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-css/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-css-js/:

    /* change default post layout to full width */
.post-list .post {
    width: 100%;
}

    Thanks bdbrown! I used Simple CSS and added that code in, this partially worked – the posts appear to have the right width, but the content in each post isn’t loaded (http://i.imgur.com/e7RDrfM.png – I think it’s only pulling in the title, category and date). I want them to replicate the look of a single post.

    PS: I tried checking and unchecking Standard List, and posts have content.

    but the content in each post isn’t loaded

    I can’t see your image at the moment but the default theme configuration displays a post excerpt, not the complete content. You can adjust the excerpt length in Customize > Content > Blog Design > Post Summary.
