   I ma having an issue with my excerpts, and it cutting the URL out of the post itself when displayed. Once you go to the main single-post page though, the link shows.

   Is there a way to fix this somehow? OR anyone run into the excerpt stripping URL's from blog posts?

   Here is my code:

   <?php	 the_post();	?>
        <div id="home-content-col2" class="grid_4">
             <h2><a>'>
                  <?php the_title(); ?></a>
             </h2>
             <p><?php the_excerpt(); ?></p>
        </div>

   the_excerpt() automatically strips out all post formatting - including links. If that's not suitable for your needs, try replacing with with the_content().

   Ahh Yes, thanks Esmi.

   I actually figured out my problem. I just had to add a separate excerpt text in the excerpt box for the post.

   '<?php the_post(); ?>
   <div id="home-content-col2" class="grid_4">
   <h2>'>
   <?php the_title(); ?>
   </h2>
   <p><?php the_excerpt(); ?></p>
   </div>'

   A little messy pasting it in here, but it worked great!
