Hello,
I need the description text of the author box (on the post page) to display fewer characters than what the description contains (and which will be displayed entirely on an author’s page, which groups his posts).
How to do it please? CSS? PHP?
Thank you
cordially
Hello,
You can add this code in your functions.php
function author_excerpt (){
$word_limit = 20; // Limit the number of words
$more_txt = 'read more about:'; // The read more text
$txt_end = '...'; // Display text end
$authorName = get_the_author();
$authorUrl = get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta('ID'));
$authorDescriptionShort = wp_trim_words(strip_tags(get_the_author_meta('description')), $word_limit, $txt_end.'<br /> '.$more_txt.' '.$authorName.'');
return $authorDescriptionShort;
}
and then modify the code in td_module_single_base:
