insert excerpt in big slider

Hi,

Please follow this topic to add excerpt to the Big Grid: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-can-i-show-up-excerpts-text-on-big-grid-image-not-only-title/

Thanks!

Hi,

Please try to add this code in big slide module: http://screencast.com/t/80VT7i2j6e an also the excerpt’s function from td_module.php: http://screencast.com/t/GhMUGRBfLtk

<div class="td-excerpt">
      <?php echo $this->current_post->get_excerpt(25);?>
</div>

function get_excerpt($lenght = 25, $show_shortcodes = '') {

        if ($this->post->post_excerpt != '') {
            return $this->post->post_excerpt;
        }

        if (empty($lenght)) {
            $lenght = 25;
        }

        $buffy = '';
        //print_r($this->post);

        //remove [caption .... [/caption] from $this->post->post_content
        $post_content = preg_replace("/\[caption(.*)\[\/caption\]/i", '', $this->post->post_content);

        $buffy .= td_util::excerpt($post_content, $lenght, $show_shortcodes);
        return $buffy;
    }

And also this css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/tnNg3nS8eCjC

.td-big-grid-meta .td-excerpt{
bottom: 0px;
left: 0;
position: absolute;
color:white;
background-color: blue;
}
.td-sbig-title-wrap {
position: absolute;
bottom: 20px;
left: 0px;
}
.td-big-grid-title .td-sbig-title-wrap{
bottom: 20px;
}

This is not an easy task if you don’t have some basic php/css experience… also it is possible to need more css customization.

Thanks!
