Front page doesn't show full length articles

  • Hello world!!! I’m in a blank despair! I use OptimizePress theme. My front page doesn’t show full length articles.It marked to show “My latest posts”. I looked up here and there and everywhere for a solution, and found nothing. I’m new to wordpress, just recently launched my first website giftsforherandmore.com which I want to use for email and affiliate marketing. I can’t code in HTML, but can follow very clear instructions. Please, somebody HELP!!!! I would really appreciate it!!!

    P.S. I want my website to look like this one: weddingsongs101.com the front page shows all the articles in full length, and when you click on “blog” it goes to a blog page with excerpted articles. I don’t know how he did that…. Thank you beforehand!

    Just in case…I’m playing around with the look of the site now, but the question is still in the air. Will be happy if someone replies!

    Rafaell, you need to change the code in your homepage template. Look for code of “The Loop” and the place where it says 

    the_excerpt();

    change it to

    the_content();

    or check if your theme’s options panel gives you an option to display either full length articles or their excerpts. Hope this helps.

    Thank you for a quick response! But for me it’s like:”You need to launch a rocket into space” ?? I have no idea how to do that… If you could help me with this, please!
    Do I need to go to Appearance>Editor… what next? Where is the “homepage template”? I’m sorry for my ignorance.. Could you please give me a step by step instruction? I would really appreciate it!

    I have: Custom CSS (Sitewide) in OptimizePress > Global Settings, will it help?

    Here is what I also found there:

    Advanced WP Filter Settings

    Check the filters that you want disabled on pages created with page builder. If some external plugin is hooked on “the_content” here is the place to disable it (for pages created with page builder).
    Disabled filters:

    sharebar_auto
    wpp_update S
    treamVideo_Parse_content

    Will this also help?

    If this page weddingsongs101.com is static, then how he adds a content there? It shows automatically every new post? I desperately want to do the same! Please help!!!

    You need to ask OptimizePress for help –

    These forums don’t support commercial themes – partly because we do not have access to them so don’t know how they are coded/set up.

    Or use a theme that’s supported here – any of these:

    Hello WPyogi! Thank you for your reply! I bought this theme because I will need to create landing pages and put some ads on my blog (affiliate marketing) Those themes that you referred me to don’t have these options, am I right?

    You can likely add both of those functions using plugins or by modifying a theme – which should generally be done in a child theme –
