  • When you use the_excerpt() WordPress strips out all formatting. There are two ways to go about this:

    1. If you want to keep using the_excerpt() and show images you can do so by using Custom Fields. Take a look at any of the magazine-style themes to see how they do this.

    2. Rather than use the_excerpt() you can use the_content(). Then when writing a new post use the “more” tag on the toolbar.

    Or simply use an Excerpt Plugin that allows you to choose if you want to strip certain formatting. I use Excerpt Editor myself.
