Hello,

In the “Latest News” section of the home page I’d like to display the full text of the posts instead of excerpts of the posts. They’re not long posts so I’m not worried about them over extending the content blocks, I just want a bit more text to be displayed. How would I go about doing that?

Regards,
Chris

Hello,

Thank you for the reply 🙂

I’m not comfortable giving out the login details for the website.

I don’t know how to code php myself but I can read it and I know my way around the WordPress editor very well so if you could inform me what code I need to change I’d appreciate that.

Regards,
Chris

Hi

You need to make some small changes in custom-functions.php file

Go to Appearance -> Editor -> inc/custom-functions.php
at line no. 804 you will find the below code

<div class="news">
    <h5>'.get_the_title().'</h5>
    <p>'.wp_trim_words( get_the_content(), of_get_option('newscontentlength'), '...' ).'</p>
    <div class="view-all-btn"><a href="'.get_permalink().'">'.of_get_option('readmoretext').'</a></div>
</div>

Now just replace this with below modified code

<div class="news">
    <h5>'.get_the_title().'</h5>
    <p>'.get_the_content().'</p>
</div>

This will display complete text without Read More button.
