excerpts, post sidebar, mailchimp

[Sagara]

Hello there,

I’m quite new at this so please forgive me. I have child theme loaded.

Is it possible to:
1. add excerpts to blog posts instead of the first part of the post appearing?
2. remove sidebar from posts page

Also
3. Mailchimp signup adds subscribers to my list, but no emails are sent, nor are my daily emails sent. I have Easy WP SMTP setup and installed. Is that a theme thing or mailchimp please?

Many thanks,

Sagara

Hi Sagara,

1. You can use Excerpt at Blog posts with Two Columns blog layout activated. For this you should go to Appearance>Customize>Posts Settings and select Two Columns blog layout
2. You can create single.php file in the Child Theme folder and add code below:

<?php
/**
 * The template for displaying all single posts
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Emmet
 * @since Emmet 1.0
 */
get_header();
?>
<div class="header-image-wrapper">
    <div class="header-image <?php if (get_header_image() != '') { ?>with-header-image <?php }?>" <?php if (get_header_image() != '') { ?>style="background-image: url(<?php header_image(); ?>);" <?php } ?>>
        <div class="container">
            <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
                <h1 class="page-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
            <?php endwhile; ?>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
<div class="container breadcrumb-wrapper">
        <?php mp_emmet_the_breadcrumb(); ?>
    </div>
<div class="container main-container">
    <div class="row clearfix">
        <div class=" col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-12 col-lg-12">
            <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
                <?php get_template_part('content', 'single'); ?>
                <?php comments_template(); ?>
            <?php endwhile; ?>
        </div>
       
    </div>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

3. We need to check plugin settings and test MailChimp widget first. Please email us.

Best regards,
John
