Simple Trunchtml issue.
Development and Programming
I am using the following in my template:
{exp:trunchtml chars="200" inline="..." }{exp:html_strip keep="strong,em,a,p"}{simplecontent}{/exp:html_strip}{/exp:trunchtml}and would like to have it so that the content has three dots (…) immediately after the last word that is truncated as opposed to on a new line.
According to the trunchtml docs, located here: http://utilitees.silenz.org/index.php/docs/item/trunchtml-documentation/ I should end up with a … using the above code.
Can someone assist? Right now it looks like this:

Mike, since this is a third-party plugin, I’ll have to move this to the Plugin forum. That said, since you are nesting plugins, all you might have to do is use
parse="inward"to the Plugin opening tag. Using that parameter will tell EE to parse that Plugin before parsing any Plugins inside of it.
Ah ok.. Sorry about that Ingmar and thanks for the tip.
No worries 😊
Update.. I tried this:
{exp:trunchtml parse="inward" chars="200" inline="..."}{exp:html_strip keep="strong,em,a,p"}{simplecontent}{/exp:html_strip}{/exp:trunchtml}but it still does not appear to do anything other than prevent html_strip from functioning correctly.
Which version of TrunHTML are you using?
Aha.. I downloaded the latest from your site and now it works. I was using the EE repository version
I thought so. The one in the repository is quite outdated. It doesn’t even have the inline-parameter.
