    I just updated to the new Voltata and now the blog posts on my front page only show a few sentences instead of the full post. I have full text checked in the reading settings but I can’t figure out what else I should try. Any help would be appreciated.

    Here’s my home page so you can see what I’m talking about: link

    Hello,

    I see the issue, first of all, i believe that the reading settings only apply to the feed, but i’m not entirely sure..

    In the latest updated i changed the blog list into using a short version of the content (as you see), instead of the full text. I will keep in mind to make this an option for the next update.

    To fix your issue you have to head into the file editor:

    Appearence > Editor in the WordPress menu and locate the file called content.php (it has the path template-parts/content.php and should be near the bottom in the file list on the right side of your browser window)

    On line 46 to 50 in the file it reads

    the_excerpt( sprintf(
    /* translators: %s: Name of current post. */
      wp_kses( __( 'Continue reading %s <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>', 'voltata' ), array( 'span' => array( 'class' => array() ) ) ),
      the_title( '<span class="screen-reader-text">"', '"</span>', false )
    ) );

    Replace those 5 lines with the_content(); this will show the full blog text instead of just the excerpt. Remember the semicolon (;).

    Please be aware that the changes you make to the theme will be overwritten, the next time you update, but that shouldn’t be an issue since i will keep this issue in mind for the next update. A child theme would be another solution, but if you dont have any coding experience, replacing the text is a simpler solution.

    I’m sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, and feel free to write if you experience any other issues. Thanks you for using Voltata.

    Kind regards,
    Simon

    Hello again Mat,

    Never mind my last response, i just uploaded an update of the theme (1.1.2).

    It should automatically have turned back to normal, but if it hasn’t, head over to the customizer > Voltata Display Options and locate the “Display full blog content on blog list” option and choose “Full content”

    Again, thanks for the feedback, i hope you’ll keep enjoying the theme ??

    Hi Simon!

    I installed the update and the full blog content is being displayed again! I really appreciate your help, and I’ll definitely be continuing to use the theme.

    Thanks so much,
