    Hi! I'm trying to use the Daily Dish theme as a traditional blog site. I can't get it to stop excerpting the posts, however. Can someone tell me what to change to get it to look like a blog 🙂 ? Thanks in advance

    I haven't used this theme. But I assume you are referring to using your home page as a blog rather than using sidebar widget areas. Try the following:
    In your dashboard, go to Genesis --> Theme Settings --> Content Archives
    From here set the necessary settings - content length, thumbnail, etc...

    Hi Doug,
    This is what I tried, but regardless of how long I make the content length, I still get it cut off before the signoff at the end of the post. I want a display that shows one blog post in it's entirety after another - not excerpts. thoughts?

    Make sure to set the "Display" to "entry content". Then try setting the "Limit content to" to 0 or empty.
