Length Of Excerpt


Recommended Posts

Ideally we would like to show at least 5 topics with excerpts, however it takes up too much space.

 

Is there a way to reduce the length of the excerpt or is it possible to display the topics so that they scroll - I can achieve a scroll using the standard rss feeds such as https://www.worthynews.com/news/world/feed or http://www.worthynews.com/feed

 

Would it be better for us the use the feed?

 

Currently we are showing the maximimum with the title only but members don't realise they can click on the title to see the story etc

Ok ... I would set up your CSS rules and simply make your excerpt smaller ... to control the size of the article.

I would always suggest adding the full feed so that search engines are grabbing content from your site and actually indexing MORE content.  The more content your site has ... the more relevant it becomes all across your site when they are indexed by search engines.

If you need help ... simply contact me by email ... and I'll be glad to give you a hand! 

God bless,

George
