Hello Lo' F,

in your case, you put 2 "pipes" instead of one :

{$item.data_map.body.content.output.output_text|strip_tags()||shorten(300, '...')}

you may try to use only one "pipe" like this :

{$item.data_map.body.content.output.output_text|strip_tags()|shorten(300, '...')}

hope this helps

Also note that there are extensions out there that does shorten a bit better on html output:

Hi Franck and Anrdre' and thanks for your reply.

...in your case, you put 2 "pipes" instead of one..

..just mistyped while reporting.. anyway...

Resolved the issue by activating wordCut extension (http://projects.ez.no/wordcut_extension) and replaced...

|shorten(300, '...')

with...

|word_cut(40)
