Solved my problem by using the “Advanced Excerpt” plugin, deselecting the option “Remove shortcodes from the excerpt.”

(Sometime between my last proper dealing with wordpress and now, these codes must have been stripped from excerpts, leading to the listings without pictures.

Thank you very much for the generic info, and particularly for pointing out the troubleshooting facility, that’s very handy!

My problem also presents when I use twenty-twenty, and must be a feature. Glancing over the code, I think that I have to deal with the definition of “excerpt”, will do this in the next few days.

Thanks again.

Resolved.

When installing WP some 6 years ago, I had wp-config outside the wordpress directory. I remembered that and edited this file. After a lot of frustration I finally found that there was also a wp-confi.php file inside wordpress – no idea where that originated and when…

Once I made the WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE edit in this file, all went well.
