Difficulty limiting post excerpts
-
Hi All,
I have looked for a solution to my problem and although i have seen code such as adding this to functions.php:
function limit_words($string, $word_limit) { // creates an array of words from $string (this will be our excerpt) // explode divides the excerpt up by using a space character $words = explode(' ', $string); // this next bit chops the $words array and sticks it back together // starting at the first word '0' and ending at the $word_limit // the $word_limit which is passed in the function will be the number // of words we want to use // implode glues the chopped up array back together using a space character if (count($words) > $word_limit ) {$end = '…';} return implode(' ', array_slice($words, 0, $word_limit)). $end; }
and this in my blog.php: ` <?php echo limit_words(get_the_excerpt(), ’10’); ?>
`
