    Hi
    Advanced layout editor is cause posts to do very strange things. Basic is working perfect

    Posts created in “basic editor” will show full text of a post in blog element – What I want
    Advanced layout editor (ALE) – OMgosh, strange things

    ALE will present post in blog as 4 lines of txt and “Read More”
    Then change the default font to say 14, which makes smaller the basic 12! / shows more on a page ( my objective of using AEL), post is then presented as ” Title only” with “read more” option. No 4x lines of content shown

    How can I turn off “read more” show title Only using “advanced layout editor” for post

    See two post using AEL and other working in Basic here

    “http://hdcfraud.com/hdc-exposed” .. link wont be displayed please remove ” ”

    Many thanks for help, feedback or advise in advance
    BTW, not good with coding
    No 3rd party editor plugin used

    Thanks JB

    Hi JB,

    When using the Layout Builder for posts then you will have to add all content to it manually, that includes the excerpts for the posts as well. If you can’t see the excerpt field then please select to show it under Screen Options in the top right hand corner of the edit screen. If you should need any further help on the topic then please post a link to where we can see the problems you are having.

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Oh dear, that’s a show stopper
    Advanced layout editor ( Layout Builder ) is the only way I have discovered to show more text of post on the screen.reduced the size from default 12pt and look good. I will revert back to basic editor, accept that face not much will be presented on a screen.
    Objective – Post shown in full in blog with out “read more” . Reduced font size that looks good
    .. Many thanks for the reply

    Hi,

    The advanced layout builder can break the blog page – that’s why you can only use the excerpt field for blog post excerpts and display the advanced layout builder content on the post pages only.

    If you really want to show the advanced layout builder content on the blog page you can add this code to your child theme functions.php:

    
add_filter( 'post-format-standard', 'avia_default_blog_excerpt_filter', 10, 1 );
function avia_default_blog_excerpt_filter($current_post)
{
	$current_post['content'] = get_the_content($current_post['the_id']);
	return $current_post;
}

    However it won’t work with all layout elements or fullwidth elements and you can easily break the blog page. We also can’t provide support for this customization.

    Best regards,
    Dude
