Show full post if there is no excerpt
As the title said - needed to show the excerpt if there was one, or the *full* post if there wasn't (not the shortened version wordpress "fakes")
remove_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'wp_trim_excerpt');
if (get_the_excerpt() == "") {
echo apply_filters('the_content',get_the_content());
} else {
echo apply_filters('the_content',get_the_excerpt());
echo '<p><a href="'.get_permalink().'">Read more...</a></p>';
}
Updated 8/11/08 Made some changes to the code. Excerpts were coming in unformatted, also removed some extra stuff I don't think I needed in there…

I really need this feature. How do I implement this code in my WP blog?
And I would also like to know how to get the "Subscribe without commenting" box you have below your posts.

Replace the code above where you would normally put your excerpt (look at your theme files - it can go anywhere you have the excerpt tag)
As for the subscribe box - that's all part of this plugin:

*rather USE THE CODE above to replace where your excerpt tag.

This would suffice
//
add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'custom_trim_excerpt');
//
