    I am using xin-magazine theme and need to display the full posts on the category pages such as abe.paulatiller.com/category/information-technology

    The category template appears not to use the ‘the_content()’ or ‘the_excerpt’ which means that I can’t implement ‘the_content()’ to display the full post.

    If anyone can help I’d be very grateful. This is a work experience project with no budget.

  • Are you able to provide the code for the file that is pulling the posts on to the page?

    This is the category.php code – I’m not sure if this is the correct file in terms of pulling in the posts:

    <?php
/**
 * @package xinmag
 * @since 1.0
 */
get_header();
	global $cat; //WP global variable
	if ( get_query_var('paged') )
	    $paged = get_query_var('paged');
	elseif ( get_query_var('page') )
	    $paged = get_query_var('page');
	else
		$paged = 1;
?>
<div id="content" class="<?php echo xinwp_content_class(); ?>" role="main">
<?php
	if ( have_posts() ) {
		xinmag_content_nav( 'nav-above' );
		xinmag_section_title();
		$count = 0;
		while ( have_posts() ) {
			the_post();
			if ( 1 == $paged && 0 == $count )
				get_template_part( 'content' );
			else {
				if ( 1 == $paged && 1 == $count ) {
					$color_class = "bgcolor_" . $cat;
					echo '<h2 class="section-more ' . $color_class . '">';
					_e( 'More from ', 'xinmag' );
					single_tag_title( '' );
					echo '</h2>';
				}
				get_template_part( 'content', 'magazine' );
			}
			$count++;
		}
		xinmag_content_nav( 'nav-below' );
	} elseif ( current_user_can( 'edit_posts' ) ) {
		get_template_part( 'content-none', 'index' );
	} ?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    I found it – it was in a file called content-magazine.php and I changed ‘the_excerpt()’ to ‘the_content()’.

    Thank you for taking the time to look at it.

    Forgot to mark the last post as resolved. Apologies.

    Nice job on figuring it out!

    Have a great day
