Blog Posts widget Bug

Issue with URL Concatenation on Blog Archive Page using Elements Kit Post Widgets read more buttons.

I’m experiencing an issue with the Elements Kit blog posts widget on my blog archive page and wherever I use this widget.

I have the widget set to display 3 blog post excerpts. When I go to click the second or third posts read more button the problem happens.

The first post’s URL is displayed correctly, but the URLs for the subsequent posts are concatenating improperly. For example:

The second post’s URL is a combination of the first and third post’s URLs.
The third post’s URL combines all three posts’ URLs.
This pattern continues with each new post, creating a chain of concatenated URLs, which are non-functional and affect the user experience on my site. I have already checked the widget’s query settings, and they appear to be standard.

Here are the steps I’ve already taken in an attempt to resolve the issue:

Checked for any potential conflicts with other plugins by deactivating and reactivating them one by one.
Verified that the permalink structure is correctly configured within WordPress settings.
Cleared all forms of caching, including browser, plugin-based, and CDN caches.
Reviewed the theme files for any custom code that might affect the output of post URLs.
Unfortunately, the problem still persists. I would appreciate any guidance or support you can provide to help resolve this URL concatenation issue.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
