The Kubrick (default) theme uses the_excerpt() tag for category and archive pages. Open archive.php for that theme (found in wp-content/themes/default/) in a text editor and where you find this:
<div class="entry">
<?php the_excerpt() ?>
</div>
Change it to this:
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content() ?>
</div>

Ooops, sorry for the misspelling… I’m not dyslexic (BoN)
The above handy tip from Kafkaesqui works in the default 1.5 search.php too!
just change the the_excerpt to the_content and your search results will include and links 🙂
Why would you want to “torture” your visitors if they look for something on your page and it is found in 102 posts… to wait until all the 102 posts are fully</e> displayed???
A title and an excerpt is completely enough to take a look – and decide whether I want to go further. It is just common sense and respect for the time of your readers.
2c.
Ah, no more edit… only “fully” was supposed to be italic.
You display 102 posts in search results? Wow, that is torture… ;)
Me? I don’t even blog lately 🙂
But, unfortunately many bloggers set their site to have too many, way tooooo many posts even on their index page, which I find very, very annoying. I have to confess, if my scrollbar is getting smaller and smaller while downloading the page, and it gets close to 1 cm or so, I quickly hit the Stop and Back buttons.
moshu:
well when i have too many posts showing up i can always change it back eh 🙂
was just mucking around and thought someone might use it
closing the /em didnt work either 😀
ps: i dont have a scrollbar, 102 posts or any worries about speed but i guess if your on 28k it would be a pain 😛
your points taken though 🙂
No, I am on cable, quite fast. It’s just my personal preference: hate long-long pages.
You’ve got me wondering now
Can the search function be told how many results to be shown,
10 or 20 per page? (kinda like google)
That way if you did find 100+ results you could thin the search down a bit without loading a big page.
ps: I’m not that fond of long pages either.
Well, in WP 1.5 the number of results (excerpts) shown is exactly the number of posts you set in the General Options > Reading.
