    sorry https://carldesigns.net/carl

    If you have the template file archive.php or category.php, find the instance of the following template tag.

    the_excerpt()

    Replace it with the following.

    the_content()

    Well, the short answer is: replace the_excerpt tag with the_content tag.

    The longer version: it’s fine now when you have 2-3 posts to show full posts, and I sincerely hope your blog never will be that big as the one I helped to move to WP and had over 7,000 posts in one category, LOL… If you show that much and full content on ONE page —–
    I think it’s an “intelligent design” to have only excerpts in monthly or category view: when there are 30 posts in a month I just want a quick overview of them and let me decide which one I want to see in full. Don’t force the visitors to have a mile long page ??

    Rant is over, it’s your blog – replace the tag in your archive.php.
