I’m having an issue with doing my blog with the full post available on index. I’m using Ethos with wordpress 4.6.1 and when I change it to full post it creates a second column just for the featured image, which ends up making the post width very narrow. http://cooperandohara.com/blog/ is the address.

Ultimately I’d like it to look like this basic blog style layout: http://cooperandohara.com/codex-seraphinianus-kiwi-hedgehog/ but just for the index page so people can just scroll through the blog.
Should I hide the featured image entirely or have it show up just below the title? Would you say that affects SEO at all?

This is sort of secondary, but I’m hoping to control the width of the actual blog content as well. How can I add more padding or adjust the max-width on the blog posts and index? Again, I’d like to format the index just like that individual page post. There’s some custom css on it, how would I apply that same styling to the blog index or make it look that way somehow?

Thanks for the help!

Also just noticed that there’s some weird glitch color patterns that form a narrow strip down the whole right side of my index page when I have it turned to Full article on index page. When i turn it to just an excerpt on index that goes away. Any help with that would be much appreciated. If I can’t get this resolved soon I’ll just have to leave it on excerpt only, because it doesn’t look good.

Cheers,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,

Thank you for writing in! You can add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

.blog .x-main .hentry>.entry-featured {display: none;}
.blog .x-main .hentry.has-post-thumbnail>.entry-wrap {width: 100%;}

Make sure you close the last CSS block you have on Customizer, or else this will not work.

Please clarify the second issue, I’m not entirely certain about it. Perhaps provide us some screenshot.

Cheers!
