 * Love the plugin – see [http://www.asyluminfo.be/en/arriving/](http://www.asyluminfo.be/en/arriving/)
 * I’m now trying to add search, with snippets for each result. My first efforts
   resulted in most results having no snippet. That changed when I deactivated. 
   But then I was left with the [accordion….] stuff showing.
 * That was fixed with a filter
 * function remove_accordion_from_excerpt( $excerpt ) {
    return preg_replace (‘/\[[
   ^\]]*\]/’, ‘$1’, $excerpt); } add_filter( ‘the_excerpt’, ‘remove_accordion_from_excerpt’);
 * But when I turned the plugin back on, no snippets were created for any page with
   an accordion tag.
 * Can you advise?

 * This seems to be a common issue with all shortcodes. I haven’t found a good solution
   beyond setting an explicit excerpt for the page.
