    Esplanade cuts off the blog posts on the front page after a certain amount of words or characters. Is there any way to show full posts on the front page without this forced break?
    Thanks in advance!

    You can go thrugh content-*.php pages and replace the_excerpt() with the_content().

    This will probably be an addition to the theme sometime the next versions.

    I was also looking for the same thing, so I replaced the_excerpt() with the_content(), and the entire post is there, but it’s shifted to the right and overflowing out of the border. I tried removing some of the code in the top of content.php to remove the thumbnail, and I got it removed; however, the post is still shifted to the right and instead of a thumbnail there’s just a big empty space. How would I fix this?

    In style.css for the selector .entry-content try removing the value margin-left: 42.55%;

    Basically as good would be a “keep reading” link at the bottom of the excerpt where the elipses are, which linked to the full post. Yes, clicking on the exerpt’s title is equivalent, except that it’s not obvious (wasn’t to me or some readers of mine) that you are supposed to click on the title to get the full article. It would be completely obvious to click on the “keep reading” link. This is commonly done in blogs and good UI, IMHO.

    Sorry, I’m a wordpress/php novice, but it must be trivial. Where can I throw this code in to do this? Might you consider updating the theme with this functionality?

    Thanks!

    Yep, it’s planned and it’s simple so it will probably be included in the next version.
