Hi @mvoelk
The plugin is primarily meant for simple regular blogging themes.
It doesn’t work well with page builders since they apply their own options to the excerpts. It’s a limitation we can’t go around unfortunately.
In your case it’s Elementor page builder.
But the excerpt is wrapped in a span tag, which means even if our plugin could change the excerpt it wouldn’t work out because a span is an inline element, things would likely break if block elements (such as paragraphs) were added.
Currently the HTML is stripped on purpose, not sure if that’s a custom Elementor module that comes with the theme or maybe from some plugin that adds a module, but it’s made in a way that does not allow HTML in the excerpt.

Thank you very much for the quick answer. I was just wondering because the plugin on my live page (https://quentia.de/karriere/) still worked wonderfully and only stopped working after the update

Hi @mvoelk
Oh, it was working and then after updating WordPress it stopped working?
Which WordPress version did you use before the update?
Also, is there any difference to how the excerpts look when the plugin is disabled and when it is enabled, the answer to that tells me if the plugin is making any changes at all to the excerpt.
At the moment I do see excerpts having HTML (list items) in the URL you sent over originally and there wasn’t any HTML yesterday when I checked, did you make any changes?
