    Hi,

    I recently updated from version 1.7 to 1.9 of your excellent plugin, but for some reason, the include_excerpt=”true” is not working. I get the title, date and more… but there is no excerpt. I also tried to remove the date by setting it to false, but it still showed.

    [display-posts category=”latest news” include_excerpt=”true” order=”ASC” posts_per_page=”4″ wrapper=”div” include_date=”true”]

    Can you please advise.

    Many thanks

    Hmm, no changes to the excerpt were made, except wrapping the hypen before it in <span class=”excerpt-wrapper”>

    Have you added any code to your theme’s functions.php file related to this plugin? If you’ve added an output filter to modify the output, it could be responsible.

    Double check your shortcode in the html view-sometimes shortcodes get pasted into the visual view in WP and it inserts code or pre tags in, which ends up breaking the shortcode.

    Hi both,

    no errors, I think it’s a theme conflict issue as it works fine with default theme (Dandelion from themeforest).

    Is there any names I can manually change that may stop the conflict? I especially need the excerpt.

    Thanks

    wohoo!

    Sorted. I’d forgotten I’d put a separate function with was conflicting…All fixed.

    Thank you for your time and help.
