Anyone have any feedback on this? This is a crucial feature for me and I can’t get it working…

Also, I have tried disabling all other plugins besides each of this individually, and still nothing.

Thanks Marventus. You mentioned there are lots of good plugins out there for that. Were there any that you had in mind? I did some searching around and couldn’t find much that seemed to fit my needs.

Anyone?

Thank you!!

No, I didn’t mean for the filter and function name to be different, and that fixed my problem. Apparently I had been staring at the code for far too long to actually see it ??

Thanks again!

The 100 word limit is my doing, I did it with the following statement in the functions.php file:

function new_excerpt_length($length) {
return 100;
}
add_filter(‘excerpt_length’, ‘new_excerpt_length’);

Yeah, the_excerpt is called on my front page. Here is the pastebin for my functions.php file. Let me know if you want the front page as well.

I don’t believe that content_limit is called anymore. That was part of the theme but I changed the front page to call the_excerpt instead of it.

Bump back to the first page, I’m still trying to figure this one out.

Yeah I actually tried that as well (the only difference was changing the return to $text, right?), and I get the same result where the excerpt doesn’t show up at all after doing it.

Whoops, forgot to post that the blog is

Btw, the code I put in functions.php that just made the whole excerpt disappear was:

remove_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'wp_trim_excerpt');
add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'replacement_custom_trim_excerpt');

function replacement_wp_trim_excerpt($text) {
	$raw_excerpt = $text;
	if ( '' == $text ) {
		$text = get_the_content('');

		$text = strip_shortcodes( $text );

		$text = apply_filters('the_content', $text);
		$text = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $text);
		$text = strip_tags($text);
		$excerpt_length = apply_filters('excerpt_length', 55);
		$excerpt_more = apply_filters('excerpt_more', ' ' . '[...]');
		$words = preg_split("/[\n\r\t ]+/", $text, $excerpt_length + 1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
		if ( count($words) > $excerpt_length ) {
			array_pop($words);
			$text = implode(' ', $words);
			$text = $text . $excerpt_more;
		} else {
			$text = implode(' ', $words);
		}
	}
	return apply_filters('replacement_wp_trim_excerpt', $text, $raw_excerpt);

Hi simplethemes, I’m using jambo theme on a few of my websites and am really liking it.

I do have one question though. How can I adjust the column width of the main page such that it matches the column width of all the other pages on the site? When I create a new page, the page is broken down with a left column that is about 80% width, and a right column that is about 20%. However, on the main page the left column and right column are both about 50%. I’m trying to make the main page the same dimensions as the other pages (roughly 80/20).

I’ve scoured through the template files, css files, etc and I can’t find where this is set. Do you recall how it’s set up?
