Just using the “your latest posts” for front page. Thanks.
On another note, how do I change the size of the featured image that displays on a post’s pagee? I can’t find a way to change this in the theme options. It seems no matter what I do the image shows up in full size on the single post.

So, under your Theme Options panel at Appearance > Theme Options —
First, make sure you have your “Post Display” set to “Blog” at Content > Archives > Post Display. Then at Content > Blog, you can setup how the default blog display is setup. One of the options there is whether to show full content or excerpts.

I didn’t add an option for this in Jump Start 2.0 because I’m trying to simplify things with a more standardized default look, that can then be changed in new themes in the future.
But it’s super easy to do through a little customization from your child theme. I just posted this article:

Good question, by the way!
Hmm, re the full text —
Content > Archives > Post Display is set to Blog.
Content > Post Display:Blog > Excerpts or Full Content is set to “Show Full Content.”
But the front page still shows excerpts and a “read more” link, not full text.
And that, my friend, is a bug you’ve found. Good catch 😉
If you want to just go ahead and fix yourself, it’s fairly simple.
[EDIT see fix below]
Hmm, unfortunately, I made this change and it didn’t fix it. Nothing changed at all, still seeing the excerpt rather than the full text.
The change is working great on my end, as far as I can tell. Is this a live site I can login to somewhere? If so, I could check it out for you? You can send the info through My Account > Submit Private Info here on the support site.
I just tried copying in the login info you sent, but can’t seem to login with it. Can you double check the username/password and case? Ha, I only have one login attempt left until your security plugin blocks my IP out.
Ok, I’ve got it figured out now. Thank your for your patience with the beta. I’ve fixed it for you in your theme.
The real problem was that the blog thumbnail option was being pulled to determine whether the content or excerpt should display (which is the bug). I had a different setup on my end. I had blog thumbnails set to “full” where you have it set to “hide”. So I was thinking, on my end, that the keyword was supposed to be “full” for full content. But really, it was just a coincidence in naming.
For anyone that comes across this topic later, here’s the fix for this bug, which will be fixed in the next Jump Start 2 release.
In /framework/includes/display.php, find on line 738:
themeblvd_set_att( 'content', themeblvd_get_option('blog_thumbs', null, 'excerpt') );And change to:
themeblvd_set_att( 'content', themeblvd_get_option('blog_content', null, 'excerpt') );Just an FYI, there’s some sort of conflict with the “WP Editor” plugin you added to my site that made it so that the dropdowns for the social media icons in your Theme Options would no longer work. I’m not sure if it causes any other conflicts, I just noticed that one, and figured it out by activating and deactivating all the plugins.
