Hello!

I have my site set up to show my most recent posts. I am using Magazine layout, but would like the first 3 posts to display the full text instead of the excerpts. I would still like to have the postclips/excerpts at the bottom. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks.

Hi there

Yes you can, if you go to Pagelines>Site Options>Blog and Posts, scroll down and you'll see a panel for full width posts in magazine mode. Select the required figure from the drop down and save :)

Kindly search the forum and read the documentation before posting. It will help you resolve many issues.

For CSS help be sure to check out W3Schools first and be sure to download FireBug for FireFox for troubleshooting.

Hi, that's actually not a solution. Newbie (and myself) are asking if the FULL post can be shown (not just full width). I'd like the first/top post to be show in full, and then be followed by clips. Or better yet, 1 full post, 2 full width clips, and then more regular clips. Is there a way to do this?

 

Thank you!

Ah I see, the option to show full post content is in the Pagelines>site options>blogs and posts tab too, but it will set all the posts in a particular area to full posts, you won't be able to select only the top two etc.

      Show Post Subcateogry without Image and with Excerpt
      By mtaus
      I'm trying to add a Careers page to a site to display job openings. The plan is to create a Post using a subcategory 'Careers' and then display those on the page. All of the post sections in PL seem to include images and there's no obvious way to remove them or include an excerpt from the post. 
      Any suggestions?

      [Solved] Locating single.php in source files
      By Dan Haddock
      Hi Pagelines team and wider community,
      I am looking to develop a single post page for my blog. I have read over an old article on the subject, however the link provided on achieving this goal was giving me security warnings. Is there any way I can get round this?
      Secondly, I have had a root around the .zip file provided on my sites backup, however was unable to locate any file in there with the name of Single.php. Does this file exist in the Pagelines theme?
      By the way, this is the unsafe article: http://support.pagelines.me/docs/customization/create-a-custom-page-template/ (Click at your peril).

      Before we had a related post section, but I can't find it among any functions, widgets etc.

      How to split a post into several pages – nexpage doesn't work!
      By lutz
      Hi everybody,
      I use Pagelines for some years now, but for the first time I have to split up posts into several pages.
      Unfortunately, <!-- nextpage --> doesn't work.
      Can please someone help me, making that work?
      I don't have the time to change the theme and need the post split up because it would be way too long, espcially on mobile displays ...
      Thanks in anticipation!!!

      Need help widening the post's texts on homepage
      By Louis
      Hi, thanks for making such a wonderful theme :)
       
      I set my website up nearly exact as I like it. 
       
      Only problem is that on the homepage my post's text is indented as if there was a widget area in the left side but I only have one for the right side.
       
      Here is what it looks like on the home page: www.gutjourney.com
       
      When you click on the post, it looks like how I wish it looked (width wise)  (I still want to continue with the post previews on my home page). 
       
      Can someone help me make my posts on my homepage line up to the left of my logo the same way they do on the actual post's page?
       
      Thank you!
       
      Louis
