Layout builder - no way to insert the_content()?

[Pbalazs89]

Hi there,

I’m trying to build a layout using Layout builder for a custom post type.
These have content, but using dynamic content I am only able to display the excerpt. How do I get the whole content displayed?

Also, as a sidenote, I looked at your booster package. Are you sure you wanted to leave the price at 2495? Just a heads up.

Also *I’m trying to add the featured image as a background. How can I achieve this? If I add it as an img, the ratios will be messed up like this:

Section / custom background / content :

Is there a better way to achieve the desired outcome?

Thanks!

Hello @Pbalazs89,

Thanks for writing to us.

Please be advised that the “The Content” dynamic element is available in a single layout while the “The Excerpt” dynamic element is available for the archive layout. If you are going to display full content for your archive layout, your only choice is to use a Raw Content element and insider this {{dc:post:the_content}} dynamic content code.

To set the featured image on the background I would suggest you please go to the element settings where you want to add the featured image -->Background —>click on this symbol—>Select the Featured image option. Please have a look at the given screenshot below.

In case you are talking about the Boost service, please have a look at it for more information.

Thanks
