One full post followed by excerpts on the home page

[xosarah]

Hello! I've created a child theme and am stuck on displaying one full post followed by excerpts on the home page.

http://xosarah.com/test2/

I've tried the Grid Loop plugin with this code http://www.billerickson.net/code/full-content-features-in-grid-loop/, which still displayed the shortened feature on the homepage.

Now I'm using this...

//* Add support for Genesis Grid Loop
remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'child_grid_loop_helper' );
function child_grid_loop_helper() {
if ( function_exists( 'genesis_grid_loop' ) ) {
genesis_grid_loop( array(
'features' => 1,
'feature_image_size' => 0,
'feature_image_class' => 'post-image',
'feature_content_limit' => 0,
'grid_image_size' => 'thumbnail',
'grid_image_class' => 'alignleft post-image',
'grid_content_limit' => 540,
'more' => __( 'READ MORE >>>', 'genesis' ),
) );
} else {
genesis_standard_loop();
}
}

Which is working perfectly on the homepage, but is displaying the same thing on archive pages instead of just excerpts. http://xosarah.com/test2/category/design/

Is there a way to target this for just the homepage?

Just learning Genesis, so forgive me if I'm missing something super simple.

You might try Bill Erickson's Grid Loop plugin. And make the Featured post full content and other posts a content limit.

Easier than hand-coding. 🙂

I tried the plugin. Is there a way to make the featured post display full within the plugin/theme settings? The only way I found was with that piece of code, which didn't work.
