ok, sorry.. I take back what I said. I had found the_excerpt yesterday and thought that might be it, but I just realized my issue is something else. The links appear in the posts, but they no NOT appear in the previews. is there a way to enable links in post previews?

Yes, I am using the default WP archive widget. Can you try to post a link in a blog and view it in your archive and report back? Thanks!

I am also using version 2.6 but have a a handful of other plugins running, but it doesn’t seem like any of the others effect Simply Exclude.

Actually, there is a plugin out there that I tried to use to exclude some posts, and one of the side effects is that it reverses your post order for some reason. That’s not what I wanted it to do (or the author, either, I don’t think), but it sounds like it is what you want it to do.

Any hope on this? I still can’t figure it out! Help! Thanks!

If I post a blog and it shows on the main page (as the most recent blog), the link is active. When viewing it through the archive, the text is still there, but the link is not active. Is there a setting for this?

It is this plugin- I just deactivated it and its the culpret. I’d really like to use it though!

I am using Simply Exclude – https://www.codehooligans.com/2008/04/27/simply-exclude-plugin/ but I have been installing and uninstalling different post ordering plugins to find the right one and one of them must have screwed up the index.php page. What should I look for in the index.php to fix this?

That’s what it was! Now I got a new problem- the blog on the front page is displaying the blogs in reverse order by date, with what I posted a month ago showing on top. Is there a setting for this order?
