    The excerpts seem to lose the formatting of the biography info.

    Disabling the excerpt with shortcode excerpt_length=0 brings back the formatting. Is there anyway to keep using an excerpt but have that excerpt be formatted?

    If not, is there a way to not show the biography info at all until clicking view profile?

    re: Disabling the excerpt with shortcode excerpt_length=0 brings back the formatting. Is there anyway to keep using an excerpt but have that excerpt be formatted?

    Right, the excerpt is created by using the wp_trim_words() function which strips formatting when it creates excerpts.

    I do have a far more advanced excerpt creation function now which will preserve formatting. I can release an update next week with this tweak.

    Alternatively, you can hide the excerpt by using CSS if you wish. Add teh following to the theme’s custom CSS area:

    #cn-circled .cn-circled-excerpt {
    display: none;
}

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks. I hide the excerpt for now, but would be interested to try the update.
