    Hello,

    can you adjust the length of the excerpt for the output of the 1st article (Featured) and leave the length of the others as in the standard?

    Thanks and regards, Horst

    Hi there,

    Not sure if this will work, but you could try:

    add_filter( 'excerpt_length', function( $length ) {
        if ( is_page( 'Your page title' ) ) {
            global $wp_query;
    
            if ( 0 === $wp_query->current_post ) {
                return 200; // Whatever the length you need for the first post.
            }
        }
    
        return $length;
    }, 999 );

    Hello Tom,

    Thanks again for the great support (also on Sundays :-))
    That unfortunately did not work. I entered “Start” as the page, the name of my homepage. I also tried “Home”. Unfortunately without success.

    It’s about the home page. There I use wp-show-post. And only in the first post should the excerpt be longer (see screenshot) Is there an idea?

    My page: https://horstschulte.com

    Best regards, Horst

    Hmm, instead of is_page( 'Your page title' ), try is_front_page().

    Let me know 🙂
