Excerpt Include Macro changes formatting of surrounding text when used on a page in order to include a string within a sentence

      Issue Summary

      When the Excerpt Include Macro simply loads a text/string from the Excerpt from another page, it adds a paragraph/line break before and after the macro text.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Add the Excerpt in a page and input a string, like "simple text"
      2. Add the Excerpt Include macro within a sentence on another page, so that it works as a "variable".

      Expected Results

      The Excerpt Include Macro value should be added seamless within the existing sentence, without breaking the formatting.

      Actual Results

      Instead, it changes the formatting of surrounding text, adding a paragraph/line break before and after the macro text, like this:

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
