Hi,

The best and easiest way i think for you is using Widgetize Pages Light plugin. visit below link

Above plugin helps you to use widget on pages, install it, follow its documentation and make “Recent Posts” widget for your page and put it on the page you want to.

Thanks

Hi,

What you said can be achieved depending on the theme you have. Do you want to do this on home page or any other page?

Thanks
Manoj

Hi Matthew,

If that is not the case check for following

1. If your Reading Settings (under admin Settings > Reading which option is selected for “Front Page Displays” if that is “Your Latest Posts” then check for $src .= get_the_content() rather than $src .= get_the_excerpt().

If you dont get it either.

2. Your home page blog displaying page is not index, so check for loop.php or such file which might be indicated in index file. this may change theme to theme.

Thanks

Hi Matthew,

Go to index.php and find following.

$src .= get_the_excerpt();

it is your excerpt, move the code for Read More button right below above line and check.

Hi Global,

You downloaded all source files from current site and uploaded to new domain where you duplicate is ok now follow below steps.

1. Login to Current domain control panel, select the database (you will find it under phpmyadmin) import is in sql format.

2. Login to new domain control panel, create new database using MySQL Databases, create user and password, then go to phpmyadmin, select database and import the SQL file you imported from current domain.

3. once all database is imported go to table wp_options and edit site_url field, which would be old domain so at new domain change it to new domain name.

4. once this is done, from new ftp download wp_config.php file and change the database name, user name and password which you set for new domain and upload back.

5. now you should be able to login to new domain admin and edit whatever you want.

If you run across any trouble. let me know

Hello guys,

I got the solution myself, but i must say, wordpress support on forum is not as good as joomla.

anyways. at the same time wordpress itself is getting powerful.

Thanks
