    Hi
    How can I add more words to the excerpt for the blogpost on my main page? I have used the “Blog posts” option to get them displayed on the front page but I think the excerpt length is way to short.

    Thanks

    Hey Elisabeth,

    Can you try to add this code in functions.php:

    function av_custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
    return 80;
}
add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'av_custom_excerpt_length', 999 );

    Just replace 80 (words) with any number, just increase or decrease it as you like.

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    Hi sitebysite,

    I think your using Blog Posts just a different translation.
    Can you try the code I gave? that should adjust the length of the excerpt.

    Hi
    I am not getting this function to work.
    Is this the function to insert?:
    }
    function av_custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
    return 80;
    }
    add_filter( ‘excerpt_length’, ‘av_custom_excerpt_length’, 999 );

    I am getting various error messages (Unexpected tokens)

    Regards
    Elisabeth

    Hi Elisabeth,

    It looks like you have an extra curly bracket on top of your code, please try this instead:

    function av_custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
return 80;
}
add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'av_custom_excerpt_length', 999 );

    Best regards,
    Rikard
