strip_tags causes problems

  • Hi,

    I am using this short-code:
    [pagelist_ext sort_column="post_date" sort_order="desc" limit_content="550" show_image="0" strip_tags="0"]

    and it does mostly what I want. But when there are images in the text this sometimes causes problems. First of all the limit-content also counts a lot of code in the image, so if it for instance has a link, hardly any other content will be shown..

    But the biggest problem is that sometimes some end-tag gets missing and then it will break the pages shown below that. This depends on the location of the images. For now I have fixed this by fiddling with the limit content, but when more childpages get added, it might happen again…

    what can I do about this?
    Is it for instance possible to strip the images, but not the paragraph and title tags?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    additional info:
    to see the problems in action I made a test page where I changed the amount in limit_content to 500:

    https://kafka-kring.nl/wordpress-kk21/testpage/

    then things go wrong in several places:
    – at the first article (not very visible, anly the read more button moves to the bottom of the page
    – between the page excerpts of: Tweemaal Die Verwandlung and Kafka dag in dag uit Where the second article gets messed up and neither article shows their read more button
    – at the bottom of the page finally the links appear from the very first page and from Kafka dag in dag uit

    The read more buttons I created through CSS (with an ::after on the title)

    trying to find the problem:
    The content of the first item misses a closing div, on the original page (where limit_content is 600) this does NOT happen

    since the content of the childpages has changed the issues now happen at other spots…
    but you can still see the differences between the testpage and the original page
