  Hi! I would like the full post to show on the front page. I absolutely adore this theme, so I’m hoping that it’s possible and I’m just skimming by a setting. Can someone let me know if it’s possible to have the entire post show? I don’t mind if older posts are truncated so much, but it’d be nice if they could all show — maybe 5 entries per page. Is this possible?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Fresh & Clean has an active excerpt box which you can copy and paste the entire post into and get the full posts display. See here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/03/25/the-excerpt-function/

  Thank you so much!

  Is it always going to say “Continue reading” at the end of the post even if there’s nothing else to read? Seems a bit odd.

  Do most of the free themes show the full post without having to mess with the excerpt box?

  Thanks again! :)

  Yes that will appear and can only be removed with a annually renewable custom design upgrade and the reqired CSS editing.

  Almost all of the old themes display full posts and nmany new themes dont/ There is a wide evariation. However, as page loading time is a page ranking factor and as many are using mobile devices, tablets, netbooks and laptops the display of full posts and particularily more than one post on the main page for posts is not as attractive an option as it once was. It will become less and less attractive as time goes on as there is a mobile explosion going on.

  Fresh & Clean is new a responsive width theme. Responsive width means the the layout adapts depending on the size of the device being used to view your site. When responsive width themes are viewed on mobiles sidebars appear below the posts in order to provide as much space as possible for reading.
