display full nodes in front page

Posted by PierreEG on January 1, 2013 at 6:13pm

Hello,

i try to have full node on my front page using preprocess function.
So this is my code :

<?php
function MYTHEME_preprocess_node(&$variables) {
  if ($variables['view_mode'] == 'teaser') {
    unset($variables['content']['links']['node']);
  }
  $variables['view_mode'] = 'full';
}
?>

I try to set $variables['view_mode'] with the value full
It doesn't work although it seems this variable exists. I really don't understand where i did a mistake.

Thanks
Pierre

Thanks.
Using views is a solution, i just was wondering how i could do the same with preprocess function theming.
If i understand, i would have to make changes directly in template_preprocess_node and not in MYTHEME_preprocess_node ?

hook_preprocess_node() runs

hook_preprocess_node() runs after the data is collected (in this case a view of the node) but before the data is themed. While one could redo the data, views would be more efficient.
