Hi guys,
how can i get character limit in summary text on Summary Template?

Tnx a lot!

With a smarty modifier:

Nullig

Tnx but i don't get it. I'm not a developer so i don't understand where i have to put this smarty modifier.

Look for:

  {eval var=$entry->summary}

in the summary template and change it to:

  {eval var=$entry->summary|truncate:30}

You can change the 30 to the amount of characters you want to have.

Nullig

Look at the link he provided, because there are more options available to configure truncate's behavior.

Thanx a lot guys. Your are the best.
