Keep text formatting in Archive post content excerpt

[patgilmour]

Hi,

In my posts, I'm using italics to indicate book titles. However, on my Blog (Home) page, the Entry content is removing the formatting.

Here are two images to show what I'm talking about:

Homepage:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kztknhvn4p13fmg/archive-page.png?dl=0

How do I keep the italic formatting (I'd like to use bold too) in the post excerpt listings on the Blog/Home page?

I'm using a modified version of the 411 theme (no listed any more but here's Brian Gardner's post about it: 411 Theme ).

Thanks for any help,

Patrick

I thought this was a Genesis/theme question, but it appears to be a general WordPress question instead.

I tried to resolve the issue with this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-excerpt/

But it doesn't work with Genesis it seems.

Any other ideas?

Looks like my question could be rephrased:

- How can I preserve text formatting for content in genesis_entry_content on the archive page?

Anyone?

Here's the solution:

add_filter('get_the_content_limit_allowedtags', 'childtheme_custom_allowedtags');
function childtheme_custom_allowedtags() {
	return '<em>'; // add whatever tags you want to this string, <b>, <strong>, etc.
}

I found the solution here: https://pixert.com/blog/enable-formatting-tags-for-content-limit-in-genesis-featured-posts-widget/
