 * Hi
 * I am running the premium theme: Engine
 * I want to know how to make the home page display the first post as a “Full Post”
   instead of an “excerpt”.
 * I have asked the support from dev and he is unresponsive, don’t go with these
   guys if you ever wanted a custom theme, lots of headaches.
 * The index.php text in the editor is this:
    <?php get_header(); # show header ?
   >
 * <?php
    #loop through builder panels $builders = it_get_setting(‘front_builder’);
   if(!empty($builders) && count($builders) > 2) { foreach($builders as $builder){
   it_shortcode($builder); } } else { echo do_shortcode(‘[loop loading=”paged” layout
   =”d”]’); } ?>
 * <?php get_footer(); # show footer ?>
 * The archive:
 * <?php get_header(); # show header ?>
 * <?php
    #get the current category archive $catid = get_query_var(‘cat’); $catid
   = empty($catid) ? -1 : $catid; #if no catid it will return all posts, so set 
   to -1 in that case $args = array(‘meta_key’ => ‘_category_frontpage’, ‘meta_value’
   => $catid, ‘post_type’ => ‘page’); $itpage = new WP_Query( $args ); if ($itpage-
   >have_posts()) : while ($itpage->have_posts()) : $itpage->the_post();
 *  the_content();
 * endwhile;
    else:
 *  #loop through builder panels from theme options
    $builders = it_get_setting(‘
   archive_builder’); if(!empty($builders) && count($builders) > 2) { foreach($builders
   as $builder) { it_shortcode($builder); } } else { echo do_shortcode(‘[loop loading
   =”paged” layout=”d”]’); }
 * endif;
    ?>
 * <?php get_footer(); # show footer ?>
 * If anyone knows what to do I would be super grateful,
 * Thanks
 * Jack
