Excerpt Length Change

    Hello Cr3ativ,

    I have been trying to change the length of the text right below the title of a scrolling post to like say 15.

    How do I go about it? I use a child theme. I changed the excerpt length using a function in the functions.php file in my child theme and that reflected in the list of posts on my blog page. This change, however, did not affect the text below the title of the sliding post.

    Am I missing something? Can it even be changed at all?

    Thanks for an awesome plugin!

    In the cr3ativ-recentposts.php file, there is a function:

    ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    ////////////////////// Limit Excerpt Length ////////////////////////////////
    ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
    return 20;
    }
    add_filter( ‘excerpt_length’, ‘custom_excerpt_length’, 999 );

    You can change the 20 to 15 and try that. Please remember though, if we update the plugin and you choose to update you will loose your changes, so you will want to back this change up or not update the plugin again. ??
