Portfolio Excerpt Hook

Hello all…

So i am trying to see if there is a way to modify the portfolio excerpt through functions.php without having to modify the actual template file through like filter or a hook?

The client is having issues trying to get FTP so i can’t copy the template file into the child at this very moment, so i thought there might be a way to execute the below code in a filter or hook that connects to the portfolio excerpt. I was able to make it into a shortcode which works great when you are within the page, but i know shortcodes do not execute within excerpts.

any help will be great!

function sociallinks () {
	
	$facebook = get_field('facebook');
	$twitter = get_field('twitter');
	$instagram = get_field('instagram');
	$website = get_field('website');
	
	$html .= '<div class="social">';
	$html .= '<ul class="menu simple rdo-social">';
	if(get_field('facebook')) {
		$html .= '<li><a href="'.  $facebook . '" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a></li>';	
	}
	if( get_field('twitter') ) {
	$html .= '<li><a href="' .  $twitter  . '" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a></li>';
	}
	if( get_field('instagram') ) {
	$html .= '<li><a href="' .  $instagram  . '" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i></a></li>';
	}
	if( get_field('website') ) {
	$html .= '<li><a href="' .  $website  . '" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-home"></i></a></li>';
	}
	$html .= '</ul></div>';

	return $html;
}
add_shortcode( 'sociallinks', 'sociallinks' );
