   Which file is the_excerpt in I can see this
   /**
   * Sets the post excerpt length to 40 characters.
   *
   * To override this length in a child theme, remove the filter and add your own
   * function tied to the excerpt_length filter hook.
   *
   * @since Twenty Ten 1.0
   * @return int
   */
   function twentyten_excerpt_length( $length ) {
   return 4000;
   }
   add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'twentyten_excerpt_length' );
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   where I have upped the limit from 40 to 4000 chars but that does not show the content if it includes an image

   yes. It's not showing the image and video properly. if you use the_content() function then you will get the full post.

   Hi,

   I'm experiencing the same problem. I've replaced all instances of 'the_excerpt' with 'the_content' in the loop.php file but am still only getting excerpts.

   I've cleared my cache just in case but it's not working. Any suggestions anyone?
