Hi is it possible to allow HTML in Excerpts in views. Basically I have a CPT with which shows the excerpt at the top of the page but any links or emails that I add to the excerpt are being stripped out on the front end.

Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

To allow HTML tags in the excerpt, you can use the shortcode:
( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#wpv-post-excerpt )


[wpv-post-excerpt output="raw"]

Note: if you're using the Blocks editor for the view, you can insert a "Fields and Text" block and then insert this shortcode in it.

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.

regards,
Waqar
