Excerpt Issue for Wordpress Users

[bobnz]

A number of my ebooks had a fault where they would show the excerpt on the blog landing page and also show the excerpt only when the full content page of each blog was displayed making it a very short post. After playing with the problem I found what part was at fault.

The ebooks were about back ache and the two wedding ones from last year.

In the Single Post (single.php) there is a line of code that reads:

<div class="story_content"><?php the_excerpt(); ?></div>

I hope this helps anyone suffering the same problem.

It should read:

<div class="story_content"><?php the_content(); ?></div>

You can edit these from the Presentation/Theme editor (still running version 2.7 wordpress)
