Hi There.
We are using plugin Search & Filter Pro to filter some products. To show the results list we use the following code:
<p><span><?php the_title(); ?></span> - <?php the_excerpt(100); ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Weiterlesen</a></p>
The problem is, that the theme is doing a shortening by intercepting the excerpt function. So AFTER you do a filtering, the result is truncated.
What can we do?
Thanks,
TF
Hey elbnetz,
Have you contacted the plugin developer to ask them about it?

Sure,
They gave me the tip, that it is the theme truncating the excerpt.
Cheers,

Hi Thorsten,
You can use the function here to specify the excerpt length:

Hi Victoria,
Thanks for the code, but there is no change, I am afraid.
Cheers,
Thorsten
Hi Thorsten,
Could you please attach some screenshots of the issue?

Victoria,
please follow the link and start to filter. The moment you select any filter the you will see the result.
Thanks!

Hi elbnetz,
I looked through the theme files and did not see the theme truncating the excerpt, the code block renders whatever code you put in there. You might want to revisit the plugin code.

Hi,
Unfortunately we do not support all available plugins, so it makes sens that we need the plugin author to make their plugin work our theme :)
Best regards,
