Using HTML in excerpt on homepage

Hello,

I like this theme very much, but there is few details I want to “improve” on my page.

The first and the most important is: is there any way how to make post excerpt on the homepage use HTML? As I see, excerpts on the front page are using plain text now, no classes, no additional html tags, nothing else is used. Sometimes I have some link right in the beginning of the article and I want it to be shown on the homepage too. Or, for example, on this page – https://www.free-ze.eu/festival-svetla-blik-blik-nabidl-nadherny-vizualni-zazitek/ – I have small external link icon in the end of the first sentence, but there is no icon on the homepage, just blank space. I will really appreciate a possibility of using html tags etc. to customise excerpt as needed.

The second question is a little bit similar. As excerpt ignores tags, it ignores <!–more–> tag too. I know there is automatic read-more tag after specific amount of letters, but I prefer to set it manually in a logic place and not in between of a sentence. (To be exact, manually used read-more tag works but a little bit strange – it “stops” text, but no read-more text appears no matter how I set it, as excerpt generally ignores tags as I said in previous question.)

Is there any way how to fix those things?

Thanks in advance,
Freeze
