      The blog-post macro is currently stripping all formatting out of the blogs it is displaying unless the desired content is within an excerpt macro.

      Steps to replicate:

      1. Create a new blog post with a small amount of paragraph text, a short heading and an image.
      2. Create another blog post as above but include all of that content within an 'excerpt' macro.
      3. Set the 'content type to display' to excerpts

      Result:

      The blog post in 1 will have no formatting and the image won't show, and the blog post in 2 will be formatted correctly. It is expected that the blog post in 1 display correctly.

            I also believe that this approach is very unfortunate and against regular user expectations. I believe that an excerpt this different from an abstract. True in an abstract I describe content with 3 - 4 sentences in plain english. A blog excerpt should work as a small teaser thus it must contains style, url and images. In fact it should just show the first N lines of an larger article.
