Hi there,

If you enter an excerpt in the excerpt field on the post edit screen, this will override the automatic excerpt generated, which allows you full control of how much content is displayed.

If you don't see the "excerpt" box on the edit page, click "screen options" in the upper-right corner of the page and check the box for the "excerpt" option to have it displayed.

Hope that helps!

Best,

Christopher

I found it...functions.php

///////////////
//EXCERPT STUFF
///////////////
function new_excerpt_length($length) {
return 300;
}
add_filter('excerpt_length', 'new_excerpt_length');
function new_excerpt_more($more) {
global $post;
return ' ...';
}
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');

Is there a way to set the length of the excerpt?

Can this "feature" be disabled entirely? I would rather not have posts truncated unless I specify the excerpt manually.
