    Theme: Chameleon
    Since WP upgrade 4.3.1, the slider text on homepage spills down outside text box. Restores from backups prior to WP upgrade have failed to fix problem. No other web changes have been made. Any ideas on how to fix please?

  • Howdy,

    I had the same problem. Chameleon uses special coding to truncate the text and it is based on the number of characters. The new version of WordPress apparently considers the number of characters to be the number of words. So, if Chameleon is set for 280 characters, it is now rendered as 280 words.

    Do you know how to change the theme code?

    Go to your Chameleon theme files or use the editor function in WordPress:

    1. includes/featured.php line 85, I changed 280 to 70
    2. includes/entry.php line 24, I changed 600 to 100

    That worked for me.
