ECAE not creating excerpts
Updated on September 24, 2019 in Easy Custom Auto Excerpt

I’m having trouble with ECAE as it’s not creating excerpts for me. In one case it displayed "0*" as the excerpt and when I changed settings it displayed the entire post. I checked both Visual and Text in the WP editor and there are paragraph breaks. I have set it to the various Paragraph, Character, First Paragraph, but no change. You can view it here: https://scruffydog.org where there is only a single post. I have deleted all posts while I’m troubleshooting this.

Here is the page source when the 0* was displayed:

<h1><a href="https://scruffydog.org/shifting-gears/">Shifting Gears</a></h1>
</div>
<div class="post-content clearfix">

<div class="entry_content">
<p><div class="pf-content"><!– Begin :: Generated by Easy Custom Auto Excerpt –><div class="ecae" style="text-align: left">+*0+*</div><!– End :: Generated by Easy Custom Auto Excerpt –></div></p>
</div> <!– end .entry_content –>
</div>
<a href="https://scruffydog.org/shifting-gears/" class="readmore">Read More</a>
</div> <!– end .note-content–>
</div> <!– end .note-inner–>
</div> <!– end .note–>
<div class="note-bottom-left">
<div class="note-bottom-right">
<div class="note-bottom-center"></div>
</div>
</div>
</article> <!– end .post–>/tcode]

and here is the source when I tried other options:

		<div class="note-inner">
<div class="note-content">
<div class="post-title">
<span class="post-meta">2016-7-14</span>

“Hey Pando,” Eddie called to me loudly from across our table, around which were seated various denizens comprising our local native wits, who were trying to enjoy Toni’s powerful overcooked and over-perked copper-colored liquid that she playfully lists as “coffee” on the menu of The Scruffy Dog Cafe.

“Um, yes, uh, yeah, Eddie, whazzup?” I replied between sips.

“You know how you’re always going on about the abysmal quality of television commercials?”

“Um, yeah, and thanks for not calling them ‘adverts’ like our mates across the pond. What’s your point?”

Eddie replied, “I’ve been casting a critical eye toward those truly obnoxious car commercials you see these days. You know, how the ad agencies spool together about twenty 1-second clips of cars peeling out, spinning donuts, climbing hills at a 50° angle, like that.”

“Um hm,” I nodded absently. I was still considering the awful aftertaste of a couple of mass-produced American bottled abominations that are amusingly marketed as “beer” that I’d consumed the night before.

“Well,” continued Eddie excitedly, “I’ve pinned down something that’s pretty ridiculous if you look closely enough.”

“In those quick clips they often insert a few seconds of a driver grabbing the floor-mounted gear shift and he shifts gears.”

“Um hm. So Eddie, that’s generally how you get the cars to move from a sitting position to a forward or backward movement.”

“Yeah, Pando, yeah, I know. But here’s a car that supposedly going up Pike’s Peak and they show a shot of the driver shifting from “P” (park) into “R” (reverse). And there’s another one that shows the car taking hairpin turns through a forest and the gear-shifting clip shows him shifting from “D” (drive) into “P”.

“How ‘bout that,” I idly remarked, “That’s par for the course. They know that nobody ever watches that closely so they stick in these ‘gotcha!’ Easter eggs just for the enjoyment of the easily amused. Thanks for entertaining us during an otherwise dull lunch, <span class=main_last> Eddie.” </span></div><!– End :: Generated by Easy Custom Auto Excerpt –></div></p>

I have cleared my browser and WP caches and that didn’t help. Any advice from you would be really helpful as this occurs on all my posts before I deleted them to troubleshoot this problem.

Also, I attempted to insert two screen grabs but that wasn’t working.

Hi,
I think the problem is on your theme because when I switch to twentynineteen, it works normal.
