WordPress Issue

This is probably a stupid question. But I cannot figure it out so here it is...

When I click on my categories I only see a summery of the articles and no way to expand to read the whole article. How do I fix this so the whole article appears?

The site is in my sig to see what I mean.

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

This should work. Find search.php in your install. Within it change:

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

Code (markup):

to

<?php the_content(); ?>

Code (markup):

 

Can you be more specific? I am looking in my hosting account and do not see a file named search.php ...only one called searchform.php

 

Look on your Wordpress install folder, wp-content>themes>yourtheme>search.php

This is on your FTP.

 

Just open your archive.php, look for:
<div class="postContent"><?php the_excerpt('(Read the rest of this entry...)'); ?></div>

change it to:
<div class="postContent"><?php the_content(); ?></div>

Let us know how it work..

 

Hi,

I'm not familiar with that theme, however, if it has a theme options page, which allows the user to easily adjust many of the theme settings (under Appearance >> Theme Options), you may be able to set the category pages to show full posts instead of summaries if your theme offers such an option.

No sense mucking around with the code if you don't have to.

HTH,

Check this as well. If it is not a template problem.

Thank you this worked great!

 

Look in your theme folder for that search.php file or goto Appearance->Editor and open it there. If you find you don't have one, it's possible the them you're using uses your index.php for a search page intead, and search for the section that says "if if_search()" and change "the_excerpt" to "the_content" there (only) to change your page from excerpts to full posts.
