Make web links active(clickable) in the_excerpt

    I realized links are not active when you a post is displayed via the_excerpt. As in the user has to view the post on via single.php before the links are clickable.

    After some searching I found this article where someone suggest links are parsed in the same manner that are in the_content.

    However we are displaying post in a jquery carousel and I actually want the link to work even though I’m using the_excerpt in my loop.

    Anyone out there know if it’s possible?

    I found that this is only possible by using the excerpt window when creating a post. If you let WordPress auto generate the excerpt the links will not be live as it does not parse the excerpt fully.
