It can be visible in every widget that uses a code similar to {{data.title | characters:60}}. The error message that appears in the browser console is the one shown in the image below:
Release
All releases.
Cause
The link to the dependency angular-truncate is missing inside the widget that uses a code like {{data.title | characters:60}}.
Another cause that can happen is there is a incorrect relationship between the angular-truncate and the widget
Resolution
The issue can be solved by adding angular-truncate to the dependency of the widget that is generating the error message.
