WordPress Only Publishes First Sentence

URL would be nice. What happens when you click on the post and go to the single entry page? Is everything there or is it still truncated? If it’s there, maybe you are inadvertently using the_excerpt instead of the_content? Or the <!-- more --> tag? (Although neither of those usually spontaneously insert themselves into your templates or posts.) ??

This has also been happening to me at https://www.nomadicsiren.org/japan/ since upgrading to 2.5. It’s as simple as:

1. Start a new post
2. Enter “This is one sentence. This is two.” in the main post area.
3. Hit Save

Everything disappears except the first sentence.

Looking at the AJAX calls that happen on a new post, I think this is the culprit:

https://www.nomadicsiren.org/japan/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=autosave&autosave=1&autosavenonce=3f42d5a148&catslist=&comment_status=open&content=This+is+one+sentence.%C2%A0+This+is+two.&excerpt=&ping_status=open&post_ID=298&post_author=&post_title=Test+sentence&post_type=post&tags_input=

Check out the weird characters after the first sentence.

I’ve got it. It happens when you use two spaces after a period instead of one. It’s got nothing to do with the AJAX call but seems to be a bug in the editor.

Hey sorry I completely forgot about this post.

I also had those weird characters all over the blog.

I tried everything with no success. Thank god it was a new installation (with only a few posts and hardly any comments), so I just erased everything and did it again from scratch.

I couldn’t find any solutions to it.
