    Hello

    First of all, thanks for the great plugin.

    Right now the excerpt is being output as plain text. I’d like to apply a class to the text in order to style it. If I do so inside the post, nothing happens. Could you point me in the direction of the source code I should edit?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Thanks for using our plugin!

    I’m busy to extend the functionality of the excerpts, so i will include styling.
    Also the possibility to show the excerpts only (without image) will be included.
    In a few day’s i will launch a new release with these extra’s.

    Hello,

    First of all i need to say that an excerpt is normally plain text (WP standard).
    For now it’s possible to change the font type and size.

    In my next release this will be possible:
    * NEW: If the maximum grids to show is reached, the read more button will be hidden.
    * NEW Short code: [bg=”x”] will hide the background images from the tiles and grids.
    * [bg=”x”] If x is 1 to 5, it will display the excerpt with title and a background color defined in the settings page.
    * [bg=”x”] If x is 11 to 15, it will display the excerpt without title and a background color defined in the settings page
    * NEW: Short code [tiles=”x”] to show grids (“0”), tiles (“1”) or tiles with shadow (“2”).
    * Short code error message removed on search page(s).

    For the excerpt part, is it this what you needed?

    Regards, Danny

    Hello,
    If you want to add your own style to it, it can be done by the plugin Simple Custom CSS.
    The styling from the grids is done in the file :
    /wp-content/plugins/grid-wud/css/grid-wud-base.css

    Just adjust the classes:
    .grid-wud-excerpt{}
    .grid-wud-excerpt-2{}
    .grid-wud-excerpt-3{}

    Tip!
    By every change add !important behind it to enforce it.
    Sample:
    .grid-wud-excerpt{background-color:#FFF !important;}

    Regards, Danny
