Hi Support,
I noticed that when I post a review to my homepage that has an issue. When you add verbiage and html to the review description box it adds the last few words under the excerpt area on the homepage.. Please see screenshots and let me know if I did something wrong or how to fix. I appreciate it.
Have a good one
Will
Specifically what is showing is “Third Party Review from Back Country”>” and at the bottom of the excerpt verbiage “Stylish, simplistic and technologically advanced for superior performance. — Material: Stainless steel and carbon drag materials; aluminum housing Backing capacity: 100… Third Party Review from Back Country”>“
hi,
what is verbiage?
most probably the html that you add has the wrong formatting: not all the tags are open and close.
ex (correct):

if you using plain text is this issue appearing?
Thanks for you message.

Hi Radu.. thanks for the help.. Here is what I have in the review description box.
`
The post verbiage with one link in the verbiage
http://www.screencast.com/t/sPxd9pkxzGM
The post verbiage with two links in the verbiage
http://www.screencast.com/t/QDa6Yd9Omm
The Home page will the excerpts. (notice what is happening when you add one link in there or two. Is my link strand incorrect?

Is it an excerpt setting issue? I see that it is pulling some text from the body of the article but then it looks like it pulls the last part of the verbiage (that being the link strand) from the review description..
Thanks,
Will
When I take the html out it gets rid of the error.. I can use html line break “br” tags in there correctly so I am sure we can use html in that area.. but it seems like the excerpt areas don’t like ahref links in that area right now.
Is there a workable fix for that for the theme?
Thanks,
Will
hi,
try to increase the excerpt length of the text from here : http://screencast.com/t/q3Ey14zAA . find what module you use and change the CONTENT LENGTH.
here is how to find the module: open your browser in Google Chrome and ad write click on the image of the post, the choose from the bottom ‘Inspect element’ like this:http://screencast.com/t/ZajVQ4i7eEn
what I think is happening is : the excerpt counts the letters ( or words – depending on how is set the excerpt) and cut the link in 2, this is what you het the "> at the end of the text.
Thanks for you message.

Hi Radu,
I have tried that actually.. It will increase the content length but still add that broken code snippet at the end.. no matter what length you try. I tried that for module 2 and Mod 3.
I am happy to send you log in detail PM if you wouldn’t mind taking a look at it.
Thanks for all of your help.. I appreciate it.
Cheers,
William

Was there any resolution to this? I’m having the same issue on http://substreammagazine.com/
Review Description: http://cl.ly/image/2g371C0P280h
Review Overview: http://cl.ly/image/0h0O0O3j0L21
Homepage Block 1 (Using Modules 2 & 3): http://cl.ly/image/0O1f113U3b0Z
As you can see, the end of the link is getting pulled into these modules and it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with excerpts.
Hey Jacob.. On your links in the review box replace any of these [“] with these[‘].. that should take care of it. I think.. 🙂 Try that and see if that takes care of it.
Cheers,
William
Aha! That did it! Thank you so much William!
Actually, this doesn’t work at all, it gets rid of the issue in the preview, but links don’t work with single quotes…
Hmmm.. Works for me .. here is a page I am using it on.. http://flyfishforfun.com/hardy-ultralite-dd-fly-fishing-reel-review/ Check out the bottom.
Maybe you are trying to do something different with your links? I would send them your issue in a new forum topic and give them your login info in a private email when they ask for it. They have been cool with helping me with all my little issues.
Good luck with your site!! Its always the little coding things that drive you crazy, right? hehehe
