Error after adding second blog - Charity Starter Kit - Sitefinity - Bugs & Issues

Hi there,
I'm using the Charity Starter Kit as a starting point. I'm using the default solution with only cosmetic changes to the style sheets so far. Through the admin I added a second blog called, "Life at DCA" but didn't add any post to it initially. I then navigate to the blog page (the one provided with the starter kit) and there are no problems. Then I go back to admin and add a first post to the Life at DCA blog. Now when the blog page loads in the admin section or on the website I get an exception thrown in the debugger. I haven't managed to find a workaround and I'm not much good at debugging through it. Any ideas what's happening here? I've included the exception details below. Again, I'm just loading the Charity Starter Kit and added a second blog. I'm running VS2010, SQL 2008 R2 on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

Hello Justin,

Thank you for contacting Telerik Support.

The problem is cased from this file: ~/Tools/Truncate.cs. Can you please alter the code as bellow:

protected override void CreateChildControls()

if (Text != null && Text.Length > Length)

// Don't truncate in the midst of a word

int iNextSpace = Text.LastIndexOf(" ", Length);

Text = string.Format("0...", Text.Substring(0, (iNextSpace > 0) ? iNextSpace : Length).Trim());

base.CreateChildControls();
