We’ve switched to the Center Pro homepage, but there seems to be a bug in the headline block.
The excerpt section here is set up to pull from the post summary. If no summary is entered, it automatically pulls from the first paragraph, as shown in the screenshot.
We plan to use custom summaries for our posts, but there’s an issue: when I enter an excerpt, the main block automatically scales based on the length of the summary. For example, if the summary is just one sentence, the block becomes extremely small and breaks the design. If it’s longer, the block grows accordingly.
At the moment, the only solution I see is not entering any summary and letting it pull content automatically.
Is there a way to fix this?
Hi,
This is not a bug, it’s the intended behavior of the element.
You can set the title and excerpt length directly from the block settings. The excerpt length setting only applies when no manual excerpt is defined for a post, in which case it will pull content from the article itself. If an excerpt is already set, it will be displayed in full.
You can also adjust the image height, and overall, everything can be customized from the block settings.
Thank you!
