Hello,
We would like to be able to trim the text of articles in the layout of our homepage, even when it is a text crop by an introductory splitter (block "read more"
.
The truncation parameter does not work when the author uses a "Read more" block. But we encourage our authors to use it.
For now, authors can make long introductions, which can make the homepage less beautiful. In their blog page, they do what they want, but in the home page we would like harmony.
We tried to limit the number of characters/words on the following zone <?php echo $post->getIntro();?> in the file /components/com_easyblog/themes/nickel/blogs/latest/default.main.php . But without good result.
The top would be to trim the text based on the number of words (not the number of characters) and finish with an ellipsis for more aesthetics when the sentence is cut.
Do you have a solution (html, css, etc.) ? It would save us.
Best regards.
