Having the same problem. The full post appears only when I switch off the “show excerpts” mobile option. With the option on, only the title of the post appears after I click “Continue reading…” I use Watson.

That’s a great catch! Now at least we know how to fix it.

I’ve just confirmed that dr12729’s fix works, so everybody go to Dashboard->Appearance->Mobile and DISABLE the excerpts. That’s the third one down. If it was working properly it would show a snippet of your post instead of the whole post; now it’s malfunctioning and it shows NOTHING.

Hi there,

Thank you all for reporting this issue. This is a new bug related to the front page excerpts option in the mobile theme, and our team is working on a fix for it now. Thanks for your patience!

Hi Rachel,
Is it really just the excerpts option that’s at issue here? I found that the excerpt was there on the home page, but when I clicked to go to the post, it was the post itself that was empty.

Thanks

Joel

Yeah, ignore my last comment, just being dumb. Thanks, please let us know when it’s fixed as I’d like to switch excerpts back on!
Thank you
Joel

Hi, I have a blog at http://www.seekingquerencia.wordpress.com. Beginning a few days ago, the front page shows the name of the post, but not the body and photo. In order to see the full post and photo, you have to click on “read more’ for the full post and photo. I’d appreciate some assistance with this. Thanks, Lydia
