Hello,

Have you reverted back to the default WP theme and deactivated all other plugins than ours as outlined in our Testing for conflicts guide?

Thanks for choosing PRO and have a good day 🙂

Yes.

In /the-events-calendar/src/views/list/single-event.php, on line 69, tribe_events_get_the_excerpt() is getting called. This looks to be what’s filtering out the li’s and br’s. Is there a way to turn this off?

Thanks,
Jon

Hi and welcome back,

After some testing and communication with fellow support team members, we came up with a solution to allow bullet points to display in the event excerpt. I’ve brought this thread to our developers attention to reference. Thanks for bringing this to our attention and hang tight for maintenance release info.


add_filter( 'wp_trim_words', 'tribe_preserve_html_in_excerpt', 10, 4 );

function tribe_preserve_html_in_excerpt( $text, $num_words, $more, $original_text ) {

remove_filter( 'wp_trim_words', 'tribe_preserve_html_in_excerpt', 10 );

$excerpt = force_balance_tags( html_entity_decode( wp_trim_words( htmlentities( $original_text ) ) ) );

add_filter( 'wp_trim_words', 'tribe_preserve_html_in_excerpt', 10, 4 );

return $excerpt;
}
