 * Hi, if you look at my current front page, there are two posts where it is showing
   the html code of the post that I don’t want it to display. For example, it’s 
   showing <span and <br currently.
 * Is this a bug or can I somehow change the settings so it doesn’t show that stuff?

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for your bug report 🙂
 * That was a bug, and it will be schedule fixed in the next release on the next
   month.
 * If you want to fix it now, try this:
    1. Open easy-custom-auto-excerpt.php
    2. Go to the line 865
    3. Replace that line with this:
        $holder_str = preg_replace(‘/[`!@#$%^&*()_+=\-\[\]\’;,.\/{}
       |”:<?~\\\\]$/’, ”, $holder_str);
    4. Save the changes
 * Regards,
