Hello, this might be a silly question, but I can’t seem to get my posts to show in their entirety on the homepage: http://meganokeefe.com/ You can see it has a “continue reading” button, but I’d rather have the whole thing up at once. Under “Reading Settings” I have selected “Full text” but I can’t find any other options that might affect this. Thanks for your help.

@Megan: That reading settings is only for Feed not for the site. The options to change Full Content Display is only there in Pro version. In Pro version, you can change that from “Appearance => Theme Options => Layout Options => Content Layout”.

But for Simple Catch Free theme, you need to build child theme and then copy the content.php to your child theme and replace the_excerpt() to the_content()

Hi Sakin,

You have taught me many things in wordpress. As a follow-up to Megan’s question; How can I reduce the top padding in my ‘posts’?The reason I would like to decrease the space is because the text in my ‘posts’ do not align with the text in my txt widgets. You were able to troubleshoot this problem for my ‘pages’ using the custom css below:

.page #content .type-page { padding-top: 10px; }

I have tried using the below css, but it doesn’t seem to do the same trick. Any thoughts?

.post #content .type-post { padding-top: 10px; }

If it is not possible for posts, could you please tell me how I can assign a page to the site’s landing page? As of right now all of my menu items direct users to ‘pages’, whereas the landing page is configured for a ‘post’.

Endless thanks,

@Matthew: You can change the padding of post that is not a problem and I see that you have already done that. But if you have all pages then don’t edit css. You can assign your landing page as page from “Settings => Readings => Front page displays” and select your Front page.

Hi Sakin,

Thank you for the tip. I foolishly forgot to request a notification through email, so I am just seeing this. Your suggestion is a much more efficient way of fixing the problem. I instead made the edit by adjusting the padding in the css. The site is now live! Could not have done it without you.

Very best,

Matthew
