I am trying to:
- I create normal views, very simple, but for some reason Toolset is wrapping views' elements in tags that ruins a view.
- The problem persists even with a default WordPress theme and all plugins turned off. (please see example of the loop code in Developer Console).
- I see the problem with all views (all were created from scratch)

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
hidden link

Hello,

I have tried the credentials you provided above, but get below error message:
ERROR: The username or password you entered is incorrect

Please check it, make sure it is a valid admin account.

Hi Loo, sorry.
Please try again (I reset the access and checked that it is possible to login under provided credentials)

The problem is in your custom shortcode [shorten_string], it outputs broken HTML tags, I have tried these:
Edit the post view "Concours page view":
In section "Loop item in Concours page view for open", replace line 4, from:
<div class="concours-item-excerpt">[shorten_string string='[wpv-post-body view_template="None" supporess_filters="true"]' length='120']</div>

With:
<div class="concours-item-excerpt"></div>

It works fine in frontend:
hidden link

You will need to debug your custom shortcode [shorten_string]

Thank you, Luo. You were right about the shortcode producing the issue. I replaced it with a Toolset field for Excerpt and everything is fine now.
