    Thank you for the help so far.

    My homepage – https://www.sarahmade.co.uk – is currently looking very empty, I understand the more posts you write the more the homepage will fill.

    I was wondering if I can get ‘welcome to sarahmade’ to display the whole article? (I’ve treid tagging ‘featured’ and also excerpt options) Or if I can feature blog posts below it also to fill up space?

    Hope this makes sense.

    Best,
    Emma

  • Hey Emma,

    Open content.php and go to line 41. There change the existing content with this :

    <?php the_content(); ?>

    Hi thank you that is exactly what i need but it has made this page https://www.sarahmade.co.uk/?page_id=188
    of blog posts appear in full and in fact i was quite happy with the way that looked.

    It’s the home page, i was wondering about, the article entitled ‘Welcome to sarahmade’ to look the same.

    Shall i insert the same code into home.php? Or is that wrong?

    Thanks for such a quick response.

    Well sorry if i misslead you, but as i see from other developers, its not good to modify the theme because after update you will loose information, but in this case it is very minor. And yes, its the same thing for all places

    Leaf Theme has a free child theme – that’s how you should be making changes so that they are not lost when the theme is updated.

    Ok great. I have now installed the child theme.

    Is there anyway I can retrieve my background from the normal Leaf theme? Is there anyway you can jump between the two?

    Sorry if this is all very basic. Really appreciate the help.

    Unfortunately, you have to redo theme settings and options in a child theme – they aren’t all transferred over. And no, you should not jump between them – don’t touch the parent theme – that’s the point of using the child theme :).
