How to get post content, not just title to show up in Archive?

  In my blog, if I go to an Archive page i.e. this one http://christinamontemurro.wordpress.com/2007/10/ I only see the titles of my posts from that month. Is it possible to have the full content of the post show up on this archive page, instead of just the titles, as is done on the home page of my blog? http://christinamontemurro.wordpress.com/

  Is this controlled by my theme (currently set to Chaotic Soul)? Can I change it without a CSS upgrade?

  Thanks very much for any assistance. :)

  That is theme-dependent and is the way the themes work. CSS only changes the look and feel of a theme, not its underlying functions. We have no ability to change a theme’s functions.

  Thanks, ellaella. So, if I chose a different theme the post content might show up – but I can’t tweak this theme?

  I don’t think any of the themes here show the entire post in the archives, but I certainly haven’t tried them all. But no, you cannot change the underlying functionality of any theme at wordpress.com. Themes are shared by tens of thousands of people.
