Hi,

This issue still there even after I deactivated the plugin.

Here is what I got :

Do you mean it could have been saved as “undefined” because of the plugin somehow ? Because I’m sure it was there before.

Hi,

Well, obviously, If I deactivate it, I won’t be able to see that preview… Because I mean the preview area under any post or page, one of the functionality that come with Yoast where you can have an idea of what the preview will be and change title or text preview as desired.

Ok, That’s a useful information since I remembered seing it somewhere, and here is the file I have, loop.php

<?php if ( $query->have_posts() ) : while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); ?>
	<article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
		<div class="mkdf-post-content">
	        <?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { ?>
		        <div class="mkdf-post-image">
			        <a itemprop="url" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
				        <?php the_post_thumbnail( 'thumbnail' ); ?>
			        </a>
		        </div>
	        <?php } ?>
	        <div class="mkdf-post-title-area <?php if ( ! has_post_thumbnail() ) { echo esc_attr( 'mkdf-no-thumbnail' ); } ?>">
		        <div class="mkdf-post-title-area-inner">
			        <h5 itemprop="name" class="mkdf-post-title entry-title">
				        <a itemprop="url" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
			        </h5>
			        <?php
			        $mkdf_my_excerpt = get_the_excerpt();
			        
			        if ( ! empty( $mkdf_my_excerpt ) ) { ?>
				        <p itemprop="description" class="mkdf-post-excerpt"><?php echo wp_trim_words( esc_html( $mkdf_my_excerpt ), 30 ); ?></p>
			        <?php } ?>
		        </div>
	        </div>
        </div>
    </article>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else: ?>
	<p class="mkdf-blog-no-posts"><?php esc_html_e( 'No posts were found.', 'backpacktraveler' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

The only problem remaining is that, if I remove that esc_html, I indeed don’t see html anymore but the highlight is not working then…

The strip tags is actually in the blog-function.php

$post_excerpt = $post->post_excerpt !== '' ? $post->post_excerpt : strip_tags( strip_shortcodes( $post->post_content ) );

I believe this is the culprit, but I’m afraid to messed up the functionality if removing or changing improperly…

In the blog-function.php I have this :

if ( ! function_exists( 'backpacktraveler_mikado_excerpt' ) ) {
	/**
	 * Function that cuts post excerpt to the number of word based on previosly set global
	 * variable $word_count, which is defined in mkdf_set_blog_word_count function.
	 *
	 * @param $length - default excerpt length
	 *
	 * @return string - formatted excerpt
	 *
	 * It current post has read more tag set it will return content of the post, else it will return post excerpt
	 *
	 */
	function backpacktraveler_mikado_excerpt( $length ) {
		global $post;
		
		//does current post has read more tag set?
		if ( backpacktraveler_mikado_post_has_read_more() ) {
			global $more;
			
			//override global $more variable so this can be used in blog templates
			$more = 0;
			
			return get_the_content( true );
		}
		
		$number_of_chars = backpacktraveler_mikado_get_meta_field_intersect( 'number_of_chars', backpacktraveler_mikado_get_page_id() );
		$word_count      = $length !== '' ? $length : $number_of_chars;
		
		//is word count set to something different that 0?
		if ( $word_count > 0 ) {
			
			//if post excerpt field is filled take that as post excerpt, else that content of the post
			$post_excerpt = $post->post_excerpt !== '' ? $post->post_excerpt : strip_tags( strip_shortcodes( $post->post_content ) );
			
			//remove leading dots if those exists
			$clean_excerpt = strlen( $post_excerpt ) && strpos( $post_excerpt, '...' ) ? strstr( $post_excerpt, '...', true ) : $post_excerpt;
			//if clean excerpt has text left
			if ( $clean_excerpt !== '' ) {
				//explode current excerpt to words
				$excerpt_word_array = explode( ' ', $clean_excerpt );
				
				//cut down that array based on the number of the words option
				$excerpt_word_array = array_slice( $excerpt_word_array, 0, $word_count );
				
				//and finally implode words together
				$excerpt = implode( ' ', $excerpt_word_array );
				
				//is excerpt different than empty string?
				if ( $excerpt !== '' ) {
					return rtrim( wp_kses_post( $excerpt ) );
				}
			}
			
			return '';
		} else {
			return '';
		}
	}
}

Hi,

Works like a charm ! Thanks a lot ! As far as I know, the other plugin doesn’t use the same attribute (that’s why I was getting an error) but do use the same shortcode as a replacement of the original one. Thanks again !
