Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to get the whole post to show up on the slider home page. It cuts off after certain amount of text.
Thanks in advance!

Slider uses `get_the_excerpt` function so it displays only first 155 words from post you have selected for slider. You can replace `the_excerpt`function with `get_the_content` function in `extras.php` file that you can find in theme folder - inc. On that file look for `dazzling_featured_slider` function.
Alternatively you can add all your content inside Excerpt field that you can see under post edit screen. If this field is not visible you can enable it via Screen Options. That way excerpt will display everything you add on that field without any length limits.

Hi,
I used the latter option and worked like a charm! Thanks Algars. Love Dazzling theme.
