Excerpt is showing html

Nevermind. I just needed to fill in the “excerpt” portion of the child pages.

That’s got to be one of the fastest fixes ever … ;-D

Seriously though, the original version of the plugin created standard excerpts where none was specified … and I got so many requests to allow HTML that I re-wrote that part of the code.

Looking back, I should make this an option … so for the next release I’ll look at adding a parameter allowing users to choose whether or not to allow HTML (html_excerpt="true|false" perhaps).

Thank you for pointing this out.

I’ve revisited this problem, and could see from visiting your page that the problem seemed to be CSS code showing up. This is embedded within <style> tags (e.g. <style>.css_styles { display:inherit; }</style>).

What was happening was that the opening and closing HTML tags were being removed, leaving the CSS to be treated as actual content. As you rightly concluded, defining a custom excerpt stopped this from showing up.

I have changed how excerpts are generated when there is no custom excerpt specified … hopefully this will stop this problem.
