Excerpt not displaying for containerized posts

I recently started using containers in all new posts, and discovered that the EXCERPT no longer displays in my Display-Post shortcode screens. The excerpt DOES show for older posts. And the excerpt is visible in WordPress’ native post listing (for all posts, both old-style and new-style). Is there a Display-Posts parameter that resolves this? Or a setting on the Post itself to force visibility of containerized text?

I am using the Avada theme, which offers its proprietary FusionBuilder framework for adding containers, columns, and elements on any post or page.

Here is the Display-Posts shortcode that is having excerpt visibility problems:
[display-posts orderby=”rand” posts_per_page=”5″ include_date=”true” include_excerpt=”true” excerpt_length=”50″ image_size=”thumbnail” wrapper=”div” wrapper_class=”display-posts-listing image-left”]
