problem insert post type

  • I define max description to 150 characters. Sometimes, the post didn’t insert into database

    $excerpt = html_entity_decode(substr(strip_tags($job[‘job_description’]), 0, 150) . “…”);

    When I change max lenght to 140 , it’is works . any idea for this problem please

    It’s probably the nature of the content being trimmed more than the length. Maybe some unacceptable characters sneaked in? Likely in the last 10 chars of the result.

    Try using wp_trim_excerpt() instead. It defaults to 55 char length, but you can alter that to be 150 through the “excerpt_length” filter. It does a good job of stripping tags and things that don’t belong in the resulting excerpt.
