 * I read that if I want to have the full post shown rather than just an excerpt,
   I just need to replace the_excerpt() with the_content() in the index.php file.
   The problem is my index.php file doesn’t contain the_excerpt().
 * I’m using the nature-one theme. Can someone please help? Thanks.

 * Yes so it doesn’t contain the excerpt it contains the_content()
 * You have to replace it with the_excerpt which will show less content.
 * You got it reverse. change content to excerpt
