Links and images disappear within archives!?

    I noticed that all links and images disappear when access any archive (author, category, date…). They are present on my main page, but I don’t know why they disappear when checking an archive. May this have anything to do with the PHP update? Perhaps I am using the wrong tags within the post? I use the tag toolbar. Can anyone offer some advice on how I could remedy this?
    Thanks so much,

    Look in index.php / archive.php / single.php and any other theme files that have the Loop in them.

    If you find the_excerpt change it to `the_content’

    Is this a result of the new update? If not, can you tell me what it is a result of? Thanks alot podz! Also, concerning support etiquette…is it ok for me to bump my question like that, or is it considered rude?
    Thanks again,

    I didn’t find those tags in any of those files you stated…any other ideas.

    I’ve even tried switching themes, and I get the same result when searching through archives.

    trashcast, it is not the result of a new update. You will need to look in the loop of each template that does not display the full content and see what function is being used – most likely it is the_excerpt(). One way to test is to edit a post and put “This is an excerpt” in the excerpt field. If the_excerpt is indeed being used, then just that will be displayed in archives and searches.

    It seems that only the excerpt shows up when searching through archives…is there a way to change that so that the actual post shows up within archives just as they show up on the main page?

    Yes, change the_excerpt() to the_content() as mentioned before.

    Where can I find that tag? I looked in the php files containing the loop, but couldn’t find it. Also, any page other than the main page shows the little question mark instead of the images. Any clue anyone? Thanks so much for your help!

    Fixed!!! I found the_excerpt tag in the archive.php and changed it to content. My images still don’t show though. All I get is the little question mark telling me it can’t find it or something. Does anyone know why this may be?

    Yeah, it is pretty simple… you are using relative links to your images. For instance, you have: src=”images/podcasticon.jpg”.

    And it should be: src=”/images/podcasticon.jpg”
