how to show full posts on home page

  • Hi,
    I’ve searched the support forum but so far don’t see an answer to this question, although it has been asked a few times.

    I have the reading settings set to “full post”, yet my home page only shows photo-less excerpts of my blog posts.

    How do I put the full blog posts on the home page? The sample seems to indicate that it’s possible, but I’ve gone through all the settings with no luck.

    All I can find is this in content.php “the_excerpt( sprintf(” – should I edit this? Or is it time to find a different theme?

  • Hello!

    Unless there’s a setting somewhere for this theme that I’m not seeing, I don’t think it supports the content of posts on the home page by default. It’s just meant to show thumbnail images and the title. (see the official demo: https://demo.inkhive.com/sixteen/)

    If you’re wanting to stick with Sixteen you could set up a custom page template that would include the full posts and then set the home page to use this template. You would need to get into the theme files a bit but it’s nothing too crazy.

    If you’re interested in going the custom template route and need a hand, let me know!

    thanks mrd, I really thought the demo showed full posts so it’s helpful to see you didn’t get the same impression. Disappointing because it has a nice vibe, but I’m moving on to keep things simple.
