]]>This Plugin seems broken.
Current WordPress, PHP8, changes at settings page arn’t saved.
]]>Hi,
the plugin is ingenious. If you use the older version and deactivate the updates, it also works in WordPress 5.6 up to version 2.5.
Unfortunately, I can only generate text extracts when I plan ahead or publish a post. If I have a caption in the first paragraph, it is taken over as text. The text excerpt has to be edited first. When I now publish the post, the text excerpt does not fit at first.
Can I somehow exclude captions from the text recognition?
Can I also have text extracts created when I save a draft?
How does that work? > you can send me some code or a function that I can integrate. I am used to working with snippets and adaptions of the functions.php.
Regards,
Arno
When a post is created I have Zapier create a Facebook post using the title, excerpt and thumbnail but the Facebook post is not showing the excerpt as the field is empty.
If I log into the site and manually generate excerpts from the plugin settings the excerpt field is populated – but of course it is too late then as Facebook has an incomplete post (no excerpt).
What would cause the excerpt not to be generated when the publish button is clicked?
Theme: Sela
WP: 5.3.2
Is it possible to get it to work with automatically published articles with Postie or WP Automatic?
]]>I love this plugin, saves me a lot of time. However, when it auto generates the excerpt it adds <br /> in the excerpt box, which is really annoying because I have to remove it. Can I do something to eliminate that unnecessary break?
]]>Hi,
Thank You for this plugin, but it show seetings page in French language by default, how can I switch it to english?
Bonjour, je viens d’installer votre plugin, et j’aimerais changer ce texte “Finish Reading”, en fran?ais, mais je n’ose rien toucher.
Pouvez-vous me dire où je dois le faire svp ?
Merci.
]]>Dear Mathieu
Thanks for a nice plugin. Am using it for a remake of en existing site, and the generated excerpts gives me a head start on all the existing posts.
Do you still support and update the plugin?
Best regards
Bjarne
Hi, what about to add a feature to generate excerpts for custom post types too?
]]>Hello,
I like the plugin, but unfortunately it does not deal at all with shortcodes. I have shortcodes placed in my articles and pages right at the start of the text, and this plugin copies the shortcode to the excerpt.
PLEASE, the plugin should NOT copy shortcodes, they must be eliminated from excerpts!!! At least the plugin should have that option…
Thank you for your consideration!
]]>I have the latest version of your plugin and the settings are all in french. I looked at the source code and the slug issue mentioned in other topics appears to be correct. Is there something i am missing here?
]]>Hello,
I noticed that this plugin doesn’t work with the Postie plugin that automates posting via an email account. It looks like Postie supports the use of a filter that I can add to our theme for populating the excerpt. What function in the wp-excerpt-generator plugin would I reference to do this? My French is very bad since it’s been over 30 years ago that I used it in college. So I’m having trouble reading the internal documentation for this plugin.
Thanks,
Jack

]]>Hi Matthieu, this plugin sounds amazing, it’s exactly what I need,

Will be wonderfull if you can highlite me with that . . .

]]>So if you have the excerpt update feature set to yes, does this plugin rely on the WP cron functionality for updating excerpts if posts are updated? Or do the excerpts get updated at the same time the post is modified? In my testing, it doesn’t seem to update an excerpt when the post is edited unless I manually delete and recreate the excerpt using the plugin admin feature. I’m wondering if I’m just being impatient and the cron process would update the excerpt in a few minutes if I left it alone.
]]>We have the Creation method set to “Number of words (to be defined)” and set the “Number of words to keep (maximum)” to 40. But a test of a post with 50 words is generating the entire post as the excerpt rather than cutting it off at 40 words.
]]>When I went to remove a specific excerpt generated by the plugin, the confirmation dialogue appeared but displayed French text. Can this be fixed?
I have uploaded a screen capture of the issue here.
]]>I tested the plugin on my local dev box and it works just fine for displaying the settings in English. But when I installed this on a staging server that runs a 3.8.1 multi-user WP instance, the plugin settings appear as French text. Any thoughts on how to fix it so it displays English text?
