August 1, 2018 at 2:05 am in reply to: (probably) Bug : Custom Excerpt don't get "cut" at the right length #5526
Benjamin
ParticipantI agree, but most “related posts” plugin I have used, have always implemented a way to circumvent it. The way WP planned it to be used is clearly not user friendly and doesn’t account for many scenarios (e.g. on the Category page, off course I want full custom excerpt… but NOT if I’m displaying small intro of related posts in a sidebar or below the current post!).
Would be nice if WP Show Posts had that too.
Example the plugin I had to use since WP Show Posts couldn’t do it, is : https://wordpress.org/plugins/posts-in-sidebar/
It’s source code is available on github:
https://github.com/aldolat/posts-in-sidebarHope you’ll be able to implement it.
Cheers,
Benjamin
Participant@Tom did you have a look at this?
I would really love to use wp show posts along with GP which is now my goto theme but some of these glitches are a bit problematic for me.
Benjamin
ParticipantHumm, too bad the download link is broken. The official version doesn’t cut the excerpt as expected and I wanted to check if it was working in the beta version…
I guess I’ll just post the problem for investigation.
Benjamin
ParticipantOK found it, the right plugin is this one :
https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-page/
Which does handle custom post type duplication.
Benjamin
ParticipantHummm somehow it doesn’t show the “duplicate” option in the list:
https://screencast.com/t/NZzUv6E9doS
So it probably doesn’t handle custom post types
Benjamin
ParticipantThanks, I wouldn’t have thought that the duplicate-post would work for this custom post type !
