The very bad part, is this RSS feed problem blocks mailchimp from working. Feedly reads the RSS without any trouble.

I’m contemplating this theme as well. Straightforward ; that’s what I like about it.

Anybody?

I read somewhere on this topic :

Are the excerpts in question manually generated, or are they just the first x words of each post? My answer stays teh same either way, but the implementation changes. This is one of those things that you COULD spend hours coding, but I wouldn’t.
If you manually generate the excerpts,, create an excel spreadsheet. Make columns for <img src=”, image location, ” align=”right”, etc. You want to be able to drop in two variables – image location and alt – and then copy the final column where you have a join bringing it all together. Drop in the variables, copy the code from the final column, and paste it into the excerpt field of the post along with your manual text.
if you’re using automatic excerpts of the first x words of the post, then you just build the same functionality into the theme so that you generate the HTML for the excerpt and insert it whenever the excerpt is called. Either way technically works.

One more question. The excerpt ignores all returns and paragraphs. Is this easy to fix?

Check my site to see what i mean.

Thanks!

Any clue on the thumb nail issue?

Extending the number of words in the except doesn’t allow the excepts to be more than 55 words. No matter what high number I put in the following line. All excerpts seem to be cut off at 55 max.

<?php thebox_excerpt(40); ?>

An I don’t mean a featured image, just a thumbnail I use in the full post. See my website doesn’t show thumbnails, but the single posts do:

Example (single post)

Versus excerpts in overview :

Any help?

Also curious how to make the short post (before the “read more”) a little longer..

Thanks mate!

It only changes the title, in the sense it’s in one line. But it still starts at the left end of the screen. Did I do something wrong?

Maybe a more distinct font, different from the text. BTW any easy way to center the title, or even better have it at the same line as the text ?

That is awesome! Will wrestle with the font and reduced header image size, but that seens to be more common to adjust. Thanks!
