Hi,
My site's specifics ask for having both manual excerpts for each post and automatic excerpts with specified lengths, both on index and archive pages.
WP standard excerpts are working in the following way both on index and archive pages:
1. If a post has no manual excerpt
. then if the custom_excerpt_length() is set to "N" words
. then WP generates a N words long automatic excerpt by trimming the post after N words
. else WP generates the default 55 words excerpt automatically by trimming the post after 55 words
. else the manual excerpt is published in the index page
2. automatically generated excerpts have all the shortcodes and tags removed, so that only words are desplayd.
So there are three possible outcomes depending on the settings:
- manual excertps (inherently clean)
- automatic N words long clean automatic excerpts (shortcodes and tags removed)
- automatic 55 words long excerpts (shortcodes and tags removed).
After activating ACP Pro, none of the above are working any longer.
No matter one is doing, WP is displaying 55 words long automatic excerpts with shortcodes and tags included (in other words WP is no longer removing the tags and the shortcodes as it normally does)
Please advise
Gabriel
PS: I have posted on my website an image for you to better understand what's going on. However my site is on maintenance mode, so if you need to see the screenshot with explanations please notify me so that I shall go live in order for you to have access. Alternately if you give me some email address I can send the image to you.
I just discovered something similar, in that my manual excerpts will not display as long as AP Pagination is activated. As soon as I deactivate it, they work again. I LOVE this plugin for what it does for my long posts' pagination, but this is a BIG issue. Please do help Gabriel and me!
Thanks,
Jan
Just for note, we're currently working in the next version of ACP, it'll not have any issue related to your cases, we'll release the ACP 1.0.4 and ACP Pro 1.0.4 within next 24 hours. All updates will be available trough your Wordpress Dashboard.
Ok, the ACP 1.0.4 and the ACP Pro 1.0.4 have been released, please update your plugins and let us know if you have any issue.
I fixed it by replacing line 65:
include 'options-layouts/promo.php';
with:
include 'options_layouts/promo.php';
You may like to update the current version for this.
Also, let me know if you plan to launch the pagination extra feature that we were talking about a few weeks ago.
Hi info1,
We just released the ACP 1.0.5 version, please update your plugins.
Confirm that APP 1.0.5 solves all the WP excerpt issues I had raised: works great!
Did not check ACP Pro 1.0.5 yet
Please Note that, the latest ACP Pro version is 1.0.4. The 1.0.5 is only for ACP Free version.
Hello,
I just upgraded from v1.0.3 to v1.0.4, but when I click on:
AP Pagination (from inside the WP admin)
I'm seeing these warnings at the top of the page, just above 'General Settings':
Warning: include(options-layouts/promo.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/www/users/abcde/wp-content/plugins/advanced-content-pagination/acp_options.php on line 65

The same occurs also on a stage where I didn't have v1.0.3 installed.
I'll revert back to v1.0.3.
Thanks,
Mihai
