I would like to add a limited amount of the posting text to the home page and category page. The end result would be like:

Title of Post Text is as current
This text would be the first x characters of the post's text. This text would be the first x characters of the post's text.
Topic Category User

This would be similar to how the Recent Discussions module works
Is there a setting for this? Can you point me in the right direction?
Hi there,

Regarding,
I would like to add a limited amount of the posting text to the home page and category page.


I do not really understand your inquiry. Perhaps, you provide us with some screenshots and explain more so we can understand better.

Do you mean showing intro text in the EasyDiscuss listing and category page, as shown in the attached screenshot? If you do, unfortunately, this is not available. You'll need to create customization in order to achieve this.

Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Hi there,

You're welcome. If you're familiar with EasyDiscuss and understand how to do the customization, you can check out and create a template override for this file to ensure your customization would not get overwritten during the update.

/components/com_easydiscuss/themes/wireframe/helpers/card/post.php

If you require us to perform the customization for you, you can always request a quote from us at https://crm.stackideas.com and select "Customizations" or submit a request at https://stackideas.com/customization-works. Our salesperson would gladly send you a quote for the customization that you have requested.

Just for your information, I have locked and marked this thread as resolved to avoid confusion in the future. Please start a new thread if you have any other issues in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiries.

Thanks for understanding.
