  I have just changed my blog Theme to Expound – which is great – but I can’t seem to get media to show in the posts on the front page of the blog (like they do on the example of the theme). I feel there must be something relatively simple that I am missing. Can anyone help, please?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I use this theme. The theme automatically provides excerpts only on the front page and the media links are not active in the excerpts.

  Thanks that’s really helpful. I revisited the demo of the Expound theme on WordPress which clearly shows images in the post excerpts.

  A little misleading, or are we BOTH missing something perhaps?

  Thanks again.

  Yes. You’re missing the part right at the top of the demo page about Featured Images and Featured Posts http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/expound/

  raincoaster – perfect, I have just trialled a post and that all works.

  Thanks for taking the time to help…

  Timethief – have a look at this link. Images CAN be embedded in excerpts:

  Gratuitous comment. The Expound theme is exceptional, and for free. Amazing and a breeze to use. Respect to Konstantin Kovshenin.
