You´re right dude. Sometimes it is a bit weired but since I´m not the programmer of the forums plugin I can´t do very much. Maybe you should ask Andy Staines at Yellow Swordfish to build in such a function. It really would help.

Turns out changing the the_content_rss call to the_excerpt works just fine. The subject also came up in this thread, so I imitated what the poster there did.

GRRR! Michael, something’s wrong with the code quicktag in this forum interface. It would be nice if there was a way to preview your post before publishing it… If it matters, I’m using FF3/Win XP.
Here’s the bits of code I was trying to post, AGAIN, this time with no formatting:
“leftcol” section, lines 29-39:
“rightcol” section, lines 66-75:
If this doesn’t post right to the forum, I give up.

Argh! Sorry, I did something wrong with the formatting of that last post. These are the sections of index.php I was trying to quote:
“leftcol” section, lines 29-39:
“rightcol” section, lines 66-75:
Also, if you want to see the site I’m building using Branford Magazine… it’s not finished yet, and it’s only running on a test server… but here’s a screenshot.
As you can see, in the rightcol and the lead story sections the italicization and a link show up. I just made sure to include the html tags for them when I pasted the text into the Excerpt field on the Write Posts page.

I got text links to show up in the right-hand featured articles section (div #rightcol), but not in the left-hand one (div #leftcol). The reason for this appears to be that the text from the post in #leftcol is actually NOT called from
the_excerpt
:
index.php lines 29-39:
but in #rightcol, it is…
index.php, lines 66-75:
To make text links show up in #rightcol, I added this style.css, beginning at line 302 (in the “Content” section):
/* my added styling… */
#content p a:link, #content p a:visited {
color: #336666;
text-decoration: underline;
}
/* … end added styling */
I think I’m going to changing the #leftcol section quoted above above to make it call
the_excerpt
instead of
the_content_rss
and see if it breaks the theme. I’m not too familiar with PHP, so this is kind of “trial and error,” but I figure if it doesn’t work I can always change it back to how it was before. If I have time I’ll post again here to tell what happened.

Thank you for your help. I'll have to see if there is a different way to direct people to the correct links.

You can´t fix that at all since this is what the excerpt doeas. It removes any format and shows 55 words of the article. You can use the_content instead of the_excerpt or you use the optional excerpt in the write post panel.

I am running the theme on 2 different websites. My problem is that when I have a hyperlink built into the text on the post it doesn't appear in the home page excerpts as a hyper link. How can I fix that?
