Issues with Baskerville 2 theme
-
I’m planning to upgrade my sites theme from the original Baskerville to Baskerville 2. However, there are some issues with different types of post on the home page.
1. Paragraph breaks aren’t displayed in the excerpts shown on the home page.
2. A video post no longer shows the video, it just shows the video’s URL.
3. A quote post isn’t displaying the quote – it displays the text excerpt.
4. A gallery post doesn’t display the text excerpt, just the gallery images.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

dadams.co.uk is not hosted by wordpress.COM.
That site is not on our WordPress.COM servers. You are posting to the wrong support forum.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
This is wordpress.COM support. We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
(1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
(2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.
(3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.Support for your site is at http://wordpress.ORG/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/
Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpackHowever, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service
WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

Hi @darrenjadams!
@timethief’s recommendation to post over on the self hosted forums is a good one for your type of site. :)
I did want to mention one thing, as it might solve part your problem, and would also apply here on WordPress.com.
Look in your Customizer for a Content Options section. Make sure
Blog Display is set to Full Posts. That should address the video and paragraph formatting issues.For the gallery posts, Baskerville 2 does handle them a little bit differently – you’ll get the featured image for the post if it has one. If not, you’ll see the gallery slideshow (but no text).
If you have more questions, or want to try modifying anything, the best place to post (since you’re hosted elsewhere) will be in the forum for the self hosted version of Baskerville: https://wordpress.org/support/theme/baskerville. Baskerville 2 doesn’t have a separate forum, so be sure to mention that you downloaded Baskerville 2 from WordPress.com when you post :)

Thanks Chad, it fixes some of the issues, but full posts is absolutely not what I want on the home page.
I found the other support forum, but it doesn’t seem that there are many answers happening there.
Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

Cool! I’ll be looping through that other forum later on so I’ll see you there! In the meantime, would using a More Tag solve the issue with using full posts?
