Suggestion: Excerpt support

    I see that the custom post type definition has the ‘excerpt’ disabled. So it’s a little confusing that the “Enable description” help text says “Enable excerpt in sliding panel”. I think it would be really helpful to actually support the excerpt field and use that value on the lightbox instead of showing the full content area.

    Nevermind! I just found how to enable the excerpt via the wavingposttype_args filter, and see that it does get used. Great !

    Hi greghaygood, any chance you could post how you did it as am after the same thing. Cheers.

    You could do something like this in your functions.php:

    // add this to your main setup function:
add_filter('wavingposttype_args', 'my_waving_ptargs');

function my_waving_ptargs($args) {
	if ( ! in_array('excerpt', $args['supports'])) {
		$args['supports'][] = 'excerpt';
	}
	return $args;
}

    Thank you greghaygood. That worked. Really appreciate your help.
