    Hello people,

    In my website I have a page wich shows excerpts of the blog posts. I have chosen the option ‘Title and Excerpt + Read More Link’ and have set the size of the preview image to manually > No scaling.
    The excerpts are showing about 60 characters (round about ten words) but I want them to show more words. I’ve tried the Advanced Exerpt Plugin with no result. I’ve also tried the WordPress Dev Tip: How to Change the Default Excerpt Length wich had no result as well.

    Any tip on to increase the number of words in the excerpts?

    Kind regards,
    Erik

    Hey Driekus!

    Please add following code to Functions.php file in Appearance > Editor and adjust as needed

    add_filter('avf_postgrid_excerpt_length','avia_change_postgrid_excerpt_length', 10, 1);
function avia_change_postgrid_excerpt_length($length)
{
   $length = 100;
   return $length;
}

    Regards,
    Yigit
