In the WP settings I have ‘full text’ checked, but get excerpts anyway. How can I override the theme on this?

If I end up keeping the excerpts, what is the best way to override WP excerpt coding to include the formatting of things like lists within the excerpt?

Also, I have been trying to incorporate custom ‘bullets’ before some of the h3 tags (for example) into this site but neither vertical-align nor :before is having any effect. I am wondering if there is something in the theme that is blocking this. Can you help me out with this? The url is here and there are three ‘bullets’ located about half-way down and toward the bottom of the page.

Thank you!

@catwingz: To show the full text, you need to go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Layout Options” and select “Full Content Display” in Content Layout. Remember, if you have use <!--more--> tag in the post then it will only display the text before more tag. So, when you use Full Content Display check your more tag http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/

About the bullets, I don’t get it what you mean. As I don’t see any bullet items in your services page. Bullet item should have ul li style like:

<ul>
<li>List Bullet Item</li>
<li>List Bullet Item</li>
<li>List Bullet Item</li>
</ul>

@Sakin,
My reply vanished, so I’m trying again…

I completely missed that piece in the Theme Options. Thanks for that.

If I end up keeping the excerpts, what is the best way to override WP excerpt coding to include the formatting of things like lists within the excerpt?

As to the ‘bullets’ I guess I am confusing things by using the term, but for my purposes the ornament on the h3 tags is accomplishing the same thing. I know it’s not a list, and getting them to position correctly is the issue. They are being so resistant that it has me wondering if there is a conflict with the theme.

thanks again

@catwingz: The excerpt text will not maintain formatting. So, if you want to show excerpt maintaining formatting then I assume that you need to use Full Content Display and use more tags code as mentioned above in previous reply.

For H3 image, you can try adding following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box, where you asked about vertical align.
.entry-content h3 img { vertical-align: bottom; }

@Sakin: Sweet. The .entry-content piece was the missing ingredient. Thank you!
