Show full post on category page?

Read the codex about the_content and the_excerpt functions.

Search category.php or archive.php, and replace this:

<?php the_content(); ?>

With this:

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

There isn’t a “category.php” in the list. I can’t find “<?php the_content(); ?>” on the “archive.php” page. Here’s what’s on that page:

<div id=”pageheader” class=”titleclass”>
<div class=”container”>
<?php get_template_part(‘templates/page’, ‘header’); ?>
</div><!–container–>
</div><!–titleclass–>

<div id=”content” class=”container”>
<div class=”row”>
<?php global $virtue; if(isset($virtue[‘blog_archive_full’]) && $virtue[‘blog_archive_full’] == ‘full’)
{$summery = ‘full’; $postclass = “single-article fullpost”;} else {$summery = ‘normal’; $postclass = ‘postlist’;} ?>
<div class=”main <?php echo kadence_main_class(); ?> <?php echo $postclass;?>” role=”main”>

<?php if (!have_posts()) : ?>
<div class=”alert”>
<?php _e(‘Sorry, no results were found.’, ‘virtue’); ?>
</div>
<?php get_search_form(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php
if($summery == ‘full’) {
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
get_template_part(‘templates/content’, ‘fullpost’);
endwhile;
} else {
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
get_template_part(‘templates/content’, get_post_format());
endwhile;
}

if ($wp_query->max_num_pages > 1) : ?>
<?php $bignumber = 999999999;
$pagargs = array(
‘base’ => str_replace( $bignumber, ‘%#%’, esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $bignumber ) ) ),
‘format’ => ‘?page=%#%’,
‘total’ => $wp_query->max_num_pages,
‘current’ => max( 1, get_query_var(‘paged’) ),
‘prev_next’ => True,
‘prev_text’ => ‘?’,
‘next_text’ => ‘?’,
‘type’ => ‘plain’,
); ?>
<div class=”wp-pagenavi”>
<?php echo paginate_links( $pagargs ); ?>
</div>

<?php endif; ?>

</div><!– /.main –>

Please keep in mind that I am a “newbie”! ??

@dazedandconfuzed,
In theme options > misc settings set the blog archive to full. Then in settings > reading set “For each article in a feed, show” to full text.
