Static Front Page Not Showing in Full

Hello

I would like a static front page but when I make and create one, only the title shows once it is set. This occurs no matter which of my pages I try.

Do you know why this might be?

I have reset the front page to posts again for now.

Thank you,
Lucy

It’s nothing to do with settings, it’s something I expect to do with my current custom css.

If you could take a look and provide me with custom code to make sure that the home page is set to show a static post in full, I’d be very grateful.

Here is the custom css on my site.

display: none;

Hello there,

I hope you are doing well today.

CSS would not be used to assign the homepage in WordPress.

You need to go to Settings > Reading and assign the homepage there then go to Appearance > Customize and add content to the front page widgets there.

Best Regards,
Support

I have two websites running on Activello, one I was able to set a static front page for and everything works fine this site I am talking about now - when I set a static front page it shows just the title and no content.

I am asking for some advice as to what to do to make the full content of the page show. It shows just the title when I set a static front page in Customize and Settings, which I have previously said.

I believe there is a conflict with the custom CSS I have already in place and hoped you would be able to pinpoint the issue and help me override it for the front page only.

Maybe I can put it another way. My posts are set to show in the blog page as just title and featured image. For some reason when I set my front page to a static page it keeps this set up so that the front page shows just the title and then a divider line underneath. It is not an issue with settings, it is an issue with some of the previous code I have been given.

Please can you check the custom css I pasted above and look for a reason that this would occur on a static front page. I do see some code that includes the words home page and wonder if this is this issue. I do not want to change it but override it for the static front page. I hope you can understand and help. Thank you.

Good evening

checking if this is css is easy, Just remove your custom css temporary and see if your problem is resolved
if you still have the problem please use this plugin to create temporary access for us, its automatic login link and does not requires sharing your admin details. here is How To guide. at the and don’t forget about  “Set as private reply” at the bottom of the message box  

I can’t do that because I need the custom css in place so that my site looks as it does. I wanted someone to identify which part of it is causing the issue and give me code to override it so that my static front page shows in full.

I do not want to give you access - if there is something you can do, I am sure you can do it by looking at the custom css that I have pasted above and advising me here.

Hi lucydm

I’m not about to remove your CSS, just try to remove it temporarily, cut it from the custom CSS and see the result
Well, it’s up to you, but i guess it will take a little bit more time

Worked it out. So simple:

.home .entry-content { display: block; }

Hi, there

Nice :slight_smile: Feel free to contact us again Thanks!
