How to make first excerpt larger than the rest
-
Hi,
Just wondering if there was a way of making the top excerpt/post larger then the rest so it looks like a magazine theme something like this…

When I change show excerpts at the moment they all come out the same size with small thumbnails. I like this for the the rest of the posts with a small thumbnail and the text on the side, but I would like the top/latest story to be larger thumbnail that expands the width of the column with the tex below. I only want this on the front page. Also, i tried changing thumnail size to increase the other ones but they all stay the same in excerpt/archive mode.
Thanks

If you have minor changes (say, less than 20 lines), you can add that code to Graphene’s custom CSS function. But if you have a lot of modifications to make, you are better off using a child theme.
ModIf you have some experience with CSS, it’s just a matter of looking at the source code or using Developer Tools (F12) to figure out which element you need to make larger.
ModQuote:So, is there a way I can make the latest post a full post and the rest excerpts?This would require the use of a child theme, and copying some theme files over to your child theme. By default, WordPress will display either all full posts or all excerpts. To do one full post followed by excerpts would require some tinkering in PHP.
