Tried almost everything listed above to no avail. I have turned off almost all of my plugins as well just in case, but no joy there either. I can also say that all other forms on the site are working properly with the same setup, so I’m a little mistified.

Problem form is here : https://www.shadowboxlive.org/community/donation-requests

Working form example here : https://www.shadowboxlive.org/volunteering

I have also pulled the extra php calls on the problem page as well just to check, but nothing there either. Same result no matter what I do. Thanks for all your work – this plugin is the bomb

Ah sry for the confusion…

Yes, I want functional HTML tags in my excerpts.

Sure there can ?? I use it in other functions I’ve written. SRP let me pass them all the way through the last version, but no longer.

My guess would be you changed the syntax ‘ $post->post_excerpt ‘ to ‘ the_excerpt() ‘. That function cleans out the HTML, but the variable does not.

I can always mod it if you won’t be adding that back in, but it was a really nice part of the SRP functionality imo. Can you point me in the new direction of that bit of code, or do I have to dig? ??

More info after additional testing –

WIDGET >
Using “Post Excerpt” and “Use the full content” DOES give out the entire excerpt BUT it ignores any special characters or HTML, so the customization is gone.

SHORTCODE >
I took a stab at using ‘fullcontent’ instead of ‘fullexcerpt’ for the content length mode and was able to at least reproduce the way the widget behaves, however still no special characters or HTML.

So –

post_content_length_mode=’fullexcerpt’
> DOES NOT WORK; i.e. displays nothing

post_content_length_mode=’fullcontent’
> WORKS BUT IGNORES ALL SPECIAL FORMATTING

Additionally –

In the Widget version under “POSTS OPTIONS > Select Post Content Type”, there is an option for “Post Excerpt” however under “POSTS OPTIONS > Cut Post Content After” there is no option for “Full Excerpt”.

Hope those things help narrow down the bugs! I love this plugin, and tho I’ll have to rework everything I’ve integrated, the added options are awesome ??

Having the same problem, and as far as I can tell it’s due to post_content_length_mode=’fullexcerpt’. All of the others options for post_content_length_mode work fine but ‘fullexcerpt’ is outputting nothing; i.e. no custom excerpts.
