HTML or text after the recent posts problem

Hi agadakou,

I realize it’s been a month but as there are no replies I thought I would anyway.

I’ve just spent the best part of an hour with this same problem. It seems the striplashes within the function are not working how they were intended.

Anyways, I couldn’t solve the problem correctly (maybe someone else could try and update this?)

But I could solve my problem with a short term fix, here:

—————————————————————————-

go to your: plugins => recent-posts-widget-extended => includes => functions.php

On about line 181 just after the while loop ends you’ll see the ul closing tag.

You can pop your link in there as html. for example:

$html .= '</ul><a href="/your-page">LINK TO ANOTHER PAGE</a>';

—————————————————————————-

It works for me, hope this might help others.

If anyone knows the correct way to do within php please update this

Thanks

I reported this, but couldn’t get a reply, so I took the matter into my own hands and solved the problem like this:

Open the functions.php file in your /wp-content/plugins/recent-posts-widget-extended/includes/ folder.

Go to line 194 (or so) and replace following line

return $args['before'] . apply_filters( 'rpwe_markup', $html ) . $args['after'];

with this:

return stripslashes($args['before']) . apply_filters( 'rpwe_markup', $html ) . stripslashes($args['after']);

Hope this will be helpful.
