I try to use the slice filter in order to limit a link to a specific amount of characters. The field that I render is a link field and my code is the following:
{% set title_text = title|render|striptags %}
<span>
{{ title_text|length > 65 ?
title_text|slice(0,65) :
title_text|striptags}}
</span>
Unforturnately some characters like the apostrophe are not rendered appropriately.
So instead of rendering "I've learned", they render "I& #039;ve learned"
