Excerpt To Full Content Homepage

    I wanted to show a full blog content, instead of an excerpt for the homepage.
    I tried replacing the_excerpt to the_content, but it is not working.
    This is the code:
    <div class="entry-summary">
               <?php the_content(); ?>
               <span class="read-more"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php esc_html_e('Continue Reading &raquo;', 'revenue'); ?></a></span>
             </div><!-- .entry-summary -->
    Code (markup):
    Or should I replace the entry-summary class and how do I do it?

    Hmmm, the div class should not really have any say in this, unless there's some CSS attached that somehow limits the size of the excerpt. What I like to do when things aren't working the way I want is to look at the WordPress default themes, find one that does what I want, and see how it do so. This often lets me copy/paste solutions and simply modify them to my needs.
