Excerpts on homepage not working
I switched "Posts or excerpts on HOME page?" to "only excerpts" and 1 in "Show the first X posts on HOME page as full posts?" in Post or Excerpts options, but on my homepage there are still full posts instead of excerpts.
How can I fix that? Wordpress 2.7.1 |
this is a bug, check it out

Question: There are two threads on this subject, (this one and http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=1835) with, apparently, different fixes. Which is correct? Or are both required? I'm running into this issue right now. But I don't want to over-correct the code.
Thanks in advance. |
I'd go with the earlier one. I was unaware of the earlier one when I opened the second.

Juggledad,
Thank you for getting back to me on this so quickly. It helps a huge amount to have an experienced pro like yourself on board. :) |
Juggledad,
Permit me one more "newbie" question before I put the fix found at this link to good use: http://forum.bytesforall.com/showpos...8&postcount=11 Which index.php? There are multiple index.php's under my root: /index.php /wp-admin/index.php <-- pretty sure I can ignore this one /wp-content/index.php <-- probably not, but ... /wp-content/themes/atahualpa333/index.php <-- presumed candidate but you now how presumptions and assumptions go Thanks in advance. P.S. How does one go about reporting spam comments on this forum. Got one this evening. |
What was it some comedian used to say? ... "Neeevvvveeerrrr Mind". :o
It was late so I figured no one would be on the board so I did what I should have done in the first place: look. For someone's future reference: root/index.php <-- just loads wp-blog-header.php ... root/wp-admin/index.php <-- seems to be strictly for the dashboard (makes sense) root/wp-content/index.php <-- almost as empty as one can get and still have a .php script root/wp-content/themes/atahualpa333/index.php <-- the target index.php file But, my question on spam replies on the forum still stands. Thanks in advance. |
Applied the http://forum.bytesforall.com/showpos...8&postcount=11 patches to index.php and bfa_post_parts.php ... and ... it works superbly.
Actually, better than expected because I wasn't anticipating the fixed excerpt logic for the Home page to use the Edit Post --> Excerpt text. I "assumed" it would do a teaser version. Thank you Flynn, and Juggledad. :) |
Hello,
Thank you for this fix ! I'm looking for a moment to find what's wrong :p |
I seem to be having the opposite problem. I switched my "Posts or excerpts on HOME page" from "full posts" to "excerpts" which worked fine on the front-end but then I tried switching back and I noticed that in the back-end settings it was already reverted to "full posts" even though excerpts were showing on front-end. I tried toggling this setting back and forth but now the back-end setting is stuck on "full posts" and the front-end is stuck showing excerpts! Any ideas?
