    Hello there - New blogger using Genesis Sample Theme. My blog is http://www.bookishboys.com. I've managed customizing until this point but am now totally stumped.

    I'm simply trying to create one custom category page that - unlike my other category pages - just lists the full content of a number of category posts. Unlike my other category pages, I want this page to have a category description, but then just a list of full posts. No post excerpts or summary, no Read More links, no title-link or featured-image-link to the full post. Just a list of short posts in their entirety.

    Thanks so much for your help.

    There's at least 2 ways to do this:

    1. You would name the file according to the WordPress Template Hierarchy.

    Then you will need to add code to that file to modify the default output for a archive so you can override the genesis theme settings and remove links etc.

    or

    2. You can create a custom page template and add code to that file which displays the full post content. You can use WP_Query for this or genesis_custom_loop
