This bug is a carry over from CS 2.x which improperly handles BBCodes and Emoticons. You can see this on the communityserver.org site. Every so often you will see a post with smilies that seem out of place, or you may be trying to use BBCodes and they...
There appears to be a bug with Control Panel / Administration / Blogs / Default Presentation / Aggregate Post Excerpt Size . While you can set this value, it does not appear that it is actually being used. It should limit the size of excerpts in aggregate...
