I would like to change the number of characters/words displayed per post excerpt in the the latest news widget. I found a forum discussion in another theme referring to this http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt#Control_Excerpt_Length_using_Filters
Is there a way to edit in Custom CSS? Where would I change this if using a child theme? Thank you.
Hi simplyaha!
No, unfortunately there’s no reliable solution to limit the excerpt length with css. I recommend to use the code from here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt#Control_Excerpt_Length_using_Filters and to add it to the child theme functions.php file (insert it at the very bottom).
Regards,
Peter
