Excerpt not appearing when using short code

  • Hi,

    Got the plugin today, playing around with putting it using the short code with in the sidebar widgets but the excerpt doesn’t seem to be showing, only page title..

    I have the Print the post excerpt too box ticked and excerpts put in one the pages I am testing with.

    I am using the thumbnail view.

    Any ideas why it wouldn’t be showing up?

    Many Thanks

    hey nick_the_lew,

    it looks like the excerpt code wasn’t added to the thumbnail output. you can fix it in this file: /plugins/baw-manual-related-posts/inc/frontend-noajax.inc.php.

    you’ll need to add this:

    ' . $_content . '

    to this line (~line 108):

    $list[] = '<li style="' . esc_attr( $style ) . '" class="' . $class . '"><a href="' . esc_url( apply_filters( 'the_permalink', get_permalink( $id ) ) ) . '">' . $thumb . '<span>' . apply_filters( 'the_title', get_the_title( $id ) ) . '</span></a></li>';

    which will then look like this:

    $list[] = '<li style="' . esc_attr( $style ) . '" class="' . $class . '"><a href="' . esc_url( apply_filters( 'the_permalink', get_permalink( $id ) ) ) . '">' . $thumb . '<span>' . apply_filters( 'the_title', get_the_title( $id ) ) . '</span></a>' . $_content . '</li>';

    Excellent, thanks aj.

    I shall give this a go once I am back on the project.
