Blog archives showing all content instead of excerpt using Video post format

Hi there,

try adding this PHP snippet:

add_filter( 'generate_show_excerpt', function( $show ) {
    if ( 'video' === get_post_format() ) {
        $show = true;
    }

    return $show;
} );

Hi David, thanks 4 the snippet! It works great but it hides also the featured video. Is there a way to keep the featured video and make it appear instead of the featured image in blog archives?
Thanks again for your help!

Oops - i didn't look close enough to see you had the video in post content.
So excerpts are stripped of HTML by default in WordPress.
Two choices:

1. Use the Read More tag in your post:

2. The Advanced Excerpts plugin in the WordPress repository

Thanks David! The "Read more" solution works perfectly! :)

Glad to be of help
