    I am trying to get the entire post to show in blog view, without having to click on continue reading, more like the traditional blog page. I have one installation of this theme installed on my server customized to be my main page/portfolio and have a second installation of the theme specifically for my blog, I have been messing around with a few of the php files for a while now and know that the area I want to change is the “Content-summary” better yet, I dont want a summary, I want the entire post to show everytime, and possibly at some point have a link at the bottom for “older posts” Pretty much the way the “Twenty-Ten” Theme is as a blog, but i want to maintain my custom header and menu style I have created. My main page is http://www.mjphoto.co and the blog is http://www.mjphoto.co/blog. anybody know how to do this??

    Find the theme file for the post format you are using to display posts, I’m using loop-slider.php. Then just find and remove <?php the_excerpt(); ?> and replace with <?php the_content(); ?> This is ussually the same for all themes.

    You can also use a plugin called Advanced Excerpt which lets you choose the number of words in the excerpt so you can include the whole post if you want.

    any way of doing this for some posts, and not others?

    If you’re still wondering, I went in to my “menus” and I created a custom menu out of links (instead of categories) and set the link to go to the actual page instead of the intro page where you have to click “continue reading.” That worked like a charm. Hope that makes sense.
