No “Read More”

please help dudes!

Well, I’ll take the “Dude” challenge… (Not that I’ve ever seen “The Big Lebowski.”)

As pointed out in the comments section of the theme author’s page:

To display the full post instead of the excerpt, open index.php and find this:

< ?php the_excerpt(); ?>

And change it to this (to display the whole post):

< ?php the_content(); ?>

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Thanks songdogtech!!!

I can’t take it anymore! Mine already saiy the_content but it’s still not working!

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="mid" class="fix">
	<div id="mainCol" class="fix"><a name="main"></a>
	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
		<div id="postMain">
        <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
			<div class="postMeta"><span class="date"><?php the_time('M j, Y') ?></span><span class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link('0', '1', '%'); ?></span></div>
			<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
            <h5><?php the_tags(); ?></h5>
			<div id="mainEntry" class="entry">
            <div id="introIMG"><img src="<?php $key="thumbnail"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?>"/></a></div>
			<p>< ?php_the_content(); ?></p></a>
			</div>
		</div>
        </div>
		<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php else : ?>
		<div class="post">
			<div class="postMeta"><span class="date">No Matches</span></div>
			<h2>No matching results</h2>
			<div class="entry">

			</div>
		</div>
		<?php endif; ?>

        <div id="more_reading">
			<?php next_posts_link('<span class="navforward"></span>') ?><?php previous_posts_link('<span class="navback"></span>') ?>
		</div>
	</div>
	<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/second.php'); ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Soz, this is the original code that came with the theme:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="mid" class="fix">
	<div id="mainCol" class="fix"><a name="main"></a>
	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
		<div id="postMain">
        <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
			<div class="postMeta"><span class="date"><?php the_time('M j, Y') ?></span><span class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link('0', '1', '%'); ?></span></div>
			<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
            <h5><?php the_tags(); ?></h5>
			<div id="mainEntry" class="entry">
            <div id="introIMG"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="Tips2" title="Read More :: Click here to read the rest of this entry."><img src="<?php $key="thumbnail"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?>"/></a></div>
			<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="Tips2" title="Read More :: Click here to read the rest of this entry."><p><?php the_content_rss('', TRUE, '', 200); ?></p></a>
			</div>
		</div>
        </div>
		<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php else : ?>
		<div class="post">
			<div class="postMeta"><span class="date">No Matches</span></div>
			<h2>No matching results</h2>
			<div class="entry">
			<p>You seem to have found a mis-linked page or search query with no associated results. Please trying your search again. If you feel that you should be staring at something a little more concrete, feel free to email the author of this site or browse the archives.</p>
			</div>
		</div>
		<?php endif; ?>

        <div id="more_reading">
			<?php next_posts_link('<span class="navforward"></span>') ?><?php previous_posts_link('<span class="navback"></span>') ?>
		</div>
	</div>
	<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/second.php'); ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

The one above is the one ive been dicking around with

Try using

<p><?php the_content(); ?></p></a>

(No space between < and ? and no _ between php and the)
