Excerpt length and tag cloud

    Hey there,

    I just found your theme and I am really in love! Thank you for sharing it!

    But there are two problems I can’t figure out myself. I am not a very experienced but a few things I could change myself. Now there are two things left:

    1. the excerpt
    Since I worked with another theme before all excerpts are 40 words. But it seems like “Shprink” takes 55 words from the entry. Which looks a little stupid now.
    Is there any change I can edit the shown excerpt length?

    2. the tag cloud
    I really love the little icon in the tag cloud but I am not a big fan of the different font sizes. Can I adjust this anywhere?
    I know a code for this but this would remove the icon and everything.

    I am using the “Flaty” theme.

    I would appreciate every help you can give me. Thank you so much!

    Sorry for the delay, I am not notified when a new issue is posted.

    The excerpt has 55 words by default in WordPress. There is no way to change that without hacking the template code. https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/the_excerpt

    For the tag cloud you can force the size of it using CSS.

    Past this into the CSS textarea in the template options page:

    .tagcloud > a {
font-size: 15px !important;
}

    Hi and thank you soo much for your answer!

    The tags look so much better now.
    At this point another questions: is there a possibility to arrange/display the categories also with this little tag icon? But not in a cloud but as a list?

    Thank you!

    You need to use Css once again:

    .widget_categories a:before {
font-family: FontAwesome;
margin-right: 5px;
content: "\f095";
}

    You can find the icons unicode here: https://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/3.2.1/icons/

    Thank you so much! It looks great!

    p.s. I posted a new question about the entry images. Maybe you got a minute to take a look at it. Thanks a lot!
