I run a Wordpress blog at http://toile.reinom.com/ and a lot of articles are using HTML codes (mainly <h*>, <p>, <a> and <figure>). Those tags are correctly displayed on the homepage and inside any blog post.

But when you browse a category (as http://toile.reinom.com/category/concevoir/concevoir-general/ ), then the articles are texts only. Same when you're doing some research on the blog.

I'm okay having text-only version when doing a research (since WP displays the part of the article where the words were found), but how can I have the HTML version of the articles on the categories? Or is it a plugin that have broken that feature (aka, if WP actually shows HTML in categories, then my theme or plugins have broken it)?

    Isn't your theme just using the_excerpt() instead of the_content() in the category.php/archive.php theme files?

  • @birgire That's exactly the problem (I've understood it exactly when you've commented ^^). If you make it an answer, I'll accept it right away.

  • @birgire Okay, it will be acceptable in 2 days. I feel schizophrenic every time I accept my own answers x)

The theme uses the_excerpt() instead of the_content().

I had created a child theme before (so I don't modify the source theme directly: only the child one), so I only had to copy/paste the PHP file (archive.php) from source theme to child theme, and change the_excerpt() for the_content( __( 'Read more &#8250;', 'my-domain' ) );
