[SOLVED] Conditional Excerpt Strip

I would like the post excerpts to not strip html tags for a specific page. I tried inputting the following in Configure EXCERPTS > "Don't strip these tags"

<?php if (! is_home() ) {?><iframe><span><p><?php } ?>

but it seems Atahualpa ignores the php conditional test.

Using this so that I can use the full image size or embedded video for the excerpt in all pages except for the home page. The home page is using featured image thumbnails that are a certain size.

I am trying to understand what you want. Is the following correct?

You want to strip tags on home page
You dont' want to strip the iframe span and p tags on all but the home page

Hi Larry,

Yes, this is exactly what I want to do.

Thank you,

That is not an area that php is evaluated in.

Hi Juggledad,

Do you know where I can make the necessary modifications? I looked in functions.php:

Code:

function bfa_wp_trim_excerpt($text)

Code:

// Build the excerpt from the post 

                $text = apply_filters('the_content', $text);

                 $text = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $text);

                $text = strip_tags($text, $bfa_ata['dont_strip_excerpts']);

I don't understand the $bfa_ata['dont_strip_excerpts'] part; is $bfa_ata a function? variable? Is $bfa_ata['dont_strip_excerpts'] equivalent to '<p><iframe><span>' aka the html elements I placed in Atahualpa's dashboard's Don't Strip area?

Sorry my PHP knowledge is basic.

you could try this, change the line

HTML Code:

$text = strip_tags($text, $bfa_ata['dont_strip_excerpts']);

HTML Code:

        if (!is_home()) {

                        $text = strip_tags($text, $bfa_ata['dont_strip_excerpts'].'<iframe><span><p>');

                } else {

                        $text = strip_tags($text, $bfa_ata['dont_strip_excerpts']);

                }

theoretically this will add the iframe, span and p when you are not on the home page.
