  • Yes I’m having this issue as well. Actually each pic has a different prefix- hellip ie:
    Igotabihellip
    Maattexthellip
    Ilovlovehellip

    etc

    I was having the same issue and finally solved it. The plugin is removing punctuation from the entire Instagram description for each picture including the unicode for an ellipsis, “…”.

    To fix, remove Line 749 of instagram_slider.php in the plugin’s folder:

    $short_caption = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9?! ]/","", $short_caption);

    This line is probably in there to prevent punctuation in the description accidentally messing up your other code. But so far no problems with this fix on my website.

    So, rather than removing filtering completely, I have simply added the string “hellip” to the filter:

    $short_caption = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9?! ] + (hellip) /","", $short_caption);

    This replaces “hellip” with an empty string, which allows the ellipsis to return. In addition, it fixed an issue we were having with the “#” character being removed from embedded hashtags.
