Trimmed version

freeman17 - February 13, 2009 - 19:56

How do I get rid of the "trimmed version" option on the front page of my site? I know that I don't want it on the main page, and I thought the option was under:

Administer › Content management › Content types

But I don't seem to see it there. Is it only like that with Drupal 6? I'm running the last version of Drupal 5 because I'm using Ubercart and it doesn't seem like there is full functionality with Ubercart and Drupal 6.

I searched the forums and found a similar post, but no one replied

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

If you don't want the river of teasers on the front page, it helps to understand what you do want on the front page.

two quick options:
create a page-front.tpl.php and create a custom front page then your river of teasers can be linked to a menu item pointing to node/

goto adminsiter -> site information -> default front page
and set the front page to a node you created that you want to be the front page.

I know for drupal 6 you go to

I know for drupal 6 you go to Administer/Post Settings. Same for Drupal 5.
Then you'll have to update all your pages or the ones causing problems by saving them again.

That should do the trick.

or use the retease.module

after you install the module

after you install the module and click on "Rebuild Node Teasers" and start the process, remember that the process has NOT ran until the cron jobs have ran.

you can manually start the cron jobs by going to "administer" > "reports" > "status reports" > it will be under "Cron maintenance tasks"

you can also run cron.php when loggged in as 1st created user by pointing your browser to yoursite.com/cron.php
