    Hi everyone
    I put the recent articles on the home page: the news. When the article is small, I would like to display the complete content with a link instead of an excerpt. I have already tried changing the settings of the wordpress (settings – reading) and the parameters of the theme – appearance-option of the theme – articles, without sucess.
    I have a child theme
    Can you help me please ?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hey,
    Your blog posts are already linking to themselves. Are you wanting to add an additional link? You can add a custom excerpt to each of your blog posts from the blog edit page under Excerpt. Would that work for you?

    Hi,

    Thank you for answering me.
    I already try, but it does not work. I added the person’s email address on the custom snippet as a link but it’s displayed as a text, not a link.

    Hello,
    I found how to add a link to the excerpt. You must add this code: in the function.php of the child theme:

    function new_excerpt_more( $more ) {
    return ‘ ‘ . __(‘Read More’, ‘your-text-domain’) . ‘‘;
    }
    add_filter( ‘excerpt_more’, ‘new_excerpt_more’ );

    As my article is very small I would like to remove the “read more”. Can you help me ?
    thanks a lot

    Hey,
    In your theme options > home layout add the “page content” to the enabled list and take out the “latest posts” section.

    Then you can output your page content as full posts in your theme options > home layout scroll to the bottom.

    Hi Ben

    I thank you very much.
    All the content of the article is well displayed, but the link in the content of the article is not available (they are not in blue)
    How can I make these links available ?

    Can you link to where you have set it up the way I am suggesting? You should be able to select full post as the output option in your theme options > home layout, for the page content. Then the full post would show with links.

    Hello Ben,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I changed the configration as you explained to me, but the links are not available on the homepage but on the article. I still have the “Read More”. you can see: http://loustic.net

    That link shows that you have not set the home page posts to full.

    In your appearance > theme options > home layout. Scroll down to “Page Content Options” and under that set the post summary to full.

    Hi Ben,

    Thank for your help.
    I did change the setting, but it didn’t change anything.
    Did I miss something?
    I send you a screenshot:

    Can you make sure in your theme options > home layout that you have put “page content” into the enabled list.

    Hi Ben,

    Thank you for your reply.
    If I move page content to enabled list and recent article to disabled list, all articles in all categories are displayed on the homepage.
    I always posted on the home page the recents articles (two maximum) by a specific category. If this article is very small I would like to display the full post with external or internal links. But I see that it is not possible.
    Thank you very much for taking your time to answer me.

    Hey,
    Yeah sorry if I understood what you were wanting better I could have explained that right off. You can limit the number of posts that show when you make the home page your posts page but you can’t limit to a category. That is the only way in the free theme to show full posts. The premium theme does have different options for that.
