Extra Word before Read More… in widget

Hey Teresa,

Thanks for posting your question.

For some reason, the first word from the testimonial paragraph is inserted just before Read More…

That certainly doesn’t sound right.

A few questions:

1. Have you verified that this isn’t a CSS issue? Do you see the testimonials first word in the markup appearing in two places too?
2. Is there a link to a site you can post, or send me so I can see what you’re seeing?

Thanks!

Hi Eric:

Thanks for your quick response.

1. I can’t be sure, but this doesn’t look like a CSS issue since the first word of each testimonial shows up in succession.

2. You can see it in action at WealthCop.com. The full versions of the testimonials are at https://wealthcop.com/member-reviews-investment-portfolio-and-strategies/ so that you can see the title vs. the paragraph.

Thanks!

T.

Hey Teresa,

Took a quick look and it does look a bit funny. I’m pretty sure that this isn’t directly caused by the Testimonials plugin, but most likely an interaction with another plugin.

Here’s what I’d expect to see for the widget markup:

<div id="ivycat-testimonial">
	<blockquote class="testimonial-content">
		<div class="ict-content">
			<p>Curabitur <a class="ict-rm-link" href="https://wp-testbed/testimonials/testimonial-1/">Read More…</a></p>
		</div>
		<footer>
			<cite>Mickey M.</cite>
		</footer>
	</blockquote>
</div>

Here’s what I am seeing on your site:

<div id="ivycat-testimonial">
<h3>Member Reviews</h3>
	<blockquote class="testimonial-content">
		<div class="ict-content">
			<p>I <a href="https://wealthcop.com/testimonials/my-little-brother-is-right-b-simmons-september-27-2012/" class="ict-rm-link">Read More…</a></p>
			<div id="tinypass_subscription_holder">

It looks to me like you’ve got another plugin, or some theme code that could be interfering.

To troubleshoot, you might try disabling your other plugins and seeing if it still happens. If not, then re-enable them one by one until the problem rears its ugly head.

Things I don’t recognize in your widget:

• <div id="tinypass_subscription_holder">
• <span id="pty_trigger"></span>
• <div id="wpcr_respond_1"></div>

I’m guessing you’ve either enabled something special to include these, or you’ve got another plugin injecting this markup.

Can you try disabling plugins and let me know how it goes?

Thanks,
Eric

OK, I see the problem. Tinypass.com is the paywall plugin.

Many thanks!

Quite welcome, Teresa!
