Hi all, our excerpt length is set to 15 on the homepage flexblock 1. However, the word count seems to change for each post. For example, if you scroll to the 3rd set of posts, the last post shows 27 words.
Also, if you change the word count to 13, then each post is anywhere from 13-27 (all of them vary).
Further, is there a way to change this to character count vs. word count? Some sentences have much shorter or longer words than others, so it can make the flex block look inconsistent and messy.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please set the excerpt to words or letters -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/excerpts-introduction/ from Theme Panel -> Excerpt and check after.
Thank you!
Thanks, Anamaria, I was able to do that, however, the excerpt lengths again don’t work after a certain number of posts. If you go to our homepage, then scroll through 3-4x, you can see all of the posts show the full excerpt and are not limited by the letters.
Hi,
Do you have the excerpt set here https://i.imgur.com/RgNHbnD.png ? If yes, then the limit does not apply.
Thank you!
Yes that was it, thanks!
Also, when I changed the excerpt length within the theme panel, all of the title lengths changed to that number too. I had to go through the whole site and change each title length manually for all flex blocks and post loops. Just FYI.
Hi,
I’m glad that it’s resolved. I’m sorry that you have to change the posts manually.
Thank you!
