Change Word Limit Dynamically

Hello!

Currently we do not have a shortcode attribute for this, only a global option. I am adding this to our to do list for the next release, and we will ship it in a few days.

Can you please give me the little hack for this, so that I can implement it for my client.
even your plugin also respond according to code I changed in at least one hour after, So also tell me How can I see the immediate effects of change into code. It’s really necessary.

Hey chetan.g,

Can you explain why a static word limit is not good enough? Can you give some examples where you would like to change it dynamically?

There will be additional filters added in 0.9.4 which will allow for programmatic filtering of the word limit. If you want to disable it for now, just change it to a very high value in Settings > Content Cards.

First as you says that “There will be additional filters added in 0.9.4 which will allow for programmatic filtering of the word limit”. please give me the example of code for this.

My client want to show different preview text, she placed [contentcards] shortcode in different categories of posts and she wants to display in content cards in column wise that’s why.

Also tell me How can change “Update Interval” settings to 1 minute value. It’s really necessary.

Hey again chetan.g,

First as you says that “There will be additional filters added in 0.9.4 which will allow for programmatic filtering of the word limit”. please give me the example of code for this.

That code simply does not exist. We haven’t finished this feature yet, and it will probably take us a day or two to complete.

My client want to show different preview text, she placed [contentcards] shortcode in different categories of posts and she wants to display in content cards in column wise that’s why.

There is no and will be no way to modify the preview text itself. The whole point of Content Cards plugin is to take the description from OpenGraph tags. word_limit option just allows us to set a maximum number of words so that Content Cards are similar in size.

Also tell me How can change “Update Interval” settings to 1 minute value. It’s really necessary.

The minimal setting of Update interval is 1 hour. Could you please tell me more about your use case? Because in my opinion, there is no case for having OpenGraph data updated more than once an hour. In fact, for most users, updating it once a day is more than enough. OpenGraph data is not supposed to change often.

From your questions I get a feeling that You are either trying to use Content Cards in a very unusual way, or You somehow misunderstand what the plugin does. Could you please tell us more about what you are trying to do? If you do not want to share that publicly, you can reach me via email: ask {at} arunas {dot} co.

Closing this as it’s not likely to get resolved in a meaningful way.
