My text won't display on my latest post in the home page

Hi there,

did you resolve the issue as i can see the Excerpt in the featured post?

Hi Dave,
No, not really. I put a manual excerpt in just to display something.
For some reason, it is not formatting properly. In all my former posts, it is displaying the excerpt with the read more tag. But it won't display the text or the tag now.
If I remove the manual excerpt, there is not text display, only the featured image.
I also tried to customize it with the read more "button".
It displays in all posts except the latest one.
Something, is not right with the formatting, and I don't know what it is.

Hi Carl,

This is likely the issue:

WordPress still needs to fix this.

ok, so the container is the problem? Then, how can I just change or remove the container? I did all the previous posts without the container. All the code examples are a bit advanced for me.

I am thinking I need to just create a new post, and just use the blocks, and no container. Then, delete the container post? Unless I can just change the container somehow?

I want to just use the auto-generated excerpt. The only way to get text in the post excerpt now, is to manually write the excerpt. But, you don't have the "read more button" or the "read more text" when you do that. People who visit the home page have to click on the image to get to the post.

That is one way to do it. Or you can edit the existing post and copy the content to a paragraph blocks then remove the previous container blocks.

I never let you know what I did to fix this. I just stopped using the button, and left the theme just generate the "read more' text.
So, I just use the excerpt function as is.

Sounds good.
