Entire posts & read more won’t show on my home page.

  • After months of working smoothly, today….all of my “more” tags have disappeared off my home page and off of all of my posts. In my “edit post,” the more tag shows up fine in both visual and html modes.

    What’s really weird is that even when I remove the “more” tag from the “edit post”….when you go to the home page, the post still breaks where the “more tag” is supposed to be but doesn’t show a “read more” link. So my readers can’t easily access my full posts and WordPress won’t let me post the entire post either!

    I’ve been scouring support forums and making subtle tweaks to my blog all day…..nothing has worked!

    Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.

  • Can you point out a post that has been shortened on the home page? All your posts that I checked were very short and seemed to be displayed in their entirety.

    thanks esmi!

    sure….here’s my homepage https://downloadmydrums.com/

    and here is the full version of one of the posts: https://downloadmydrums.com/free-loops-samples-rekkerd-org/

    i always put my download links after the read more so it’s kind of important for readers to have access…..

    btw…..i have NOT changed themes or added new plugins recently.

    Can you drop a copy of your home page template file (I’m assuming it will be index.php) into the WordPress pastebin? Do you have anything special set up in that theme? Any customised pages or theme options that might impact on the Home page?

    here’s the index.php file: https://wordpress.pastebin.ca/1526725

    the theme is pretty standard. As far as the theme and pages….i only changed the type colors, border colors, inserted my own logos, etc….nothing major. all the pages are standard.

    again, this problem started happening out of nowhere. i hadn’t made any changes to my theme in several months.

    Yep – pretty standard.

    Have you tried deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    that worked! I had a post teaser plugin that was activated. Yesterday I thought I had deactivated it but maybe I just deactivated it and didn’t apply the changes on the plugin page. In any event, the read more tag is back.

    Now, new question……after you click the read more link it takes you to the bottom of the post page. What can I do to make the read more link take readers to the top of the entire post?

    thanks for all your help so far!

    My functions.php looks like this:

    <?php
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => 'Sidebar 1',
'before_widget' => '
<li>',
'after_widget' => '</li>
',
'before_title' => '<h2>',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));

if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => 'Sidebar 2',
'before_widget' => '
<li>',
'after_widget' => '</li>
',
'before_title' => '<h2>',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));

?>

    Where do I insert the code recommended in the codex link? because I tried inserting it into a couple different places and none of them worked.

    sorry for the double post, it looks like this.

    <?php
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => 'Sidebar 1',
'before_widget' => '
<li>',
'after_widget' => '</li>
',
'before_title' => '<h2>',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));

if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => 'Sidebar 2',
'before_widget' => '
<li>',
'after_widget' => '</li>
',
'before_title' => '<h2>',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));

?>
