• This blog shows the first post in its entirety, but not every blog post that follows it. Bushwick only displays when posts were posted beneath that. Where there should be at least an excerpt or thumbnail image from individual blog posts, there is just “Posted 2 months ago.”

    Why? How is that even happening? Is that a theme setting I can change somewhere? Is this the expected default behavior?

  • Hi @@fakob!

    That is a design decision, and part of how Bushwick was built, yes. It shows content from the first post, and then just the title and date with a “Read” button for subsequent posts.

    If you’d like Bushwick to display content for all of your posts, the first step will be to set up a child theme.

    In your child theme’s folder, you’ll want a copy of Bushwick’s index.php file.

    In your copy, you’ll need to modify your loop (the bit of code that cycles through the posts to display them).

    Replace this code from index.php:

    				if ( have_posts() ) :
    					the_post();
    
    					/* Include the Post-Format-specific template for the content.
    					 * If you want to overload this in a child theme then include a file
    					 * called content-___.php (where ___ is the Post Format name) and that will be used instead.
    					 */
    					get_template_part( 'content' );
    
    					while ( have_posts() ) :
    						the_post();
    
    						get_template_part( 'content', 'preview' );
    					endwhile;
    

    with this:

    				if ( have_posts() ) :
    					while ( have_posts() ) :
    						the_post();
    
    						get_template_part( 'content' );
    					endwhile;
    
    					bushwick_paging_nav();
    
    				else :
    					get_template_part( 'content', 'none' );
    				endif;
    

    In the original code, the theme is treating the first differently by displaying the full content. In the revised code, there’s only one display so they all come out with the same formatting ??
