 * Ok i have searched the forum and can’t see this anywhere else but i cannot believe
   this is the first time this has appeared.
 * When I add video embed code or shortcodes for pugins to a post they never appear
   on the homepage, just mangled looking code, however clicking through to the actual
   post pages everything works just fine.
 * My theme has not been butchered and no plugins are running except the one for
   the shortcode, no matter what shortcode plugin i use (each tried in isolation)
   the same thing happens.
 * Anyone help me with this frustrating problem?
 * Thank you in advance

 * i guess, your front page template (index.php ?) is probably using `the_excerpt()`
   instead of `the_content()`

   [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_content](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_content)
 * try to exchange `the_excerpt()` with `the_content()`
 * if this is not it, you might need to supply more information – link to your site

   top test post is affected, if you click through to the post page you will see
   all correctly displayed
