Recent Post Extended Excerpt Not Playing Nice

  • I’m having this problem where a phantom link for
    the YouTube thumbnail is being shown in the excerpt portion
    of the Sidebar RECENT POST EXTENDED WIDGET. This Link which is not clickable takes you to the “video on YouTube” for that
    thumbnail.

    The weird thing is the phantom link is only being shown in the sidebar
    of the Buddypress Forums Plugin (BBP) page and nowhere else.
    I’ve tried the latest WP theme and I’ve tried disabling all plugins.

    The Only Plugin when deactivated, that makes the phantom link disappear is RECENT POST EXTENDED WIDGET.
    The phantom link also doesn’t show if I disable excerpt in the widget settings which is not
    a viable option for me. Without the excerpt text in the sidebar it looks empty only showing
    Post Thumb, Title, and Read more text.

    WIDGET EXAMPLE:

    Thumbnail to the left

    <h3 class=”rpwe-title”>D.C. Cab</h3> Title to the right

    <div class=”rpwe-summary”> Excerpt below Title to the right

    Phantom link
