We’ve the problem that we cannot customize the word count for the text inside the slider.
For the summary pages there’s an option (e.g. first words) but this doesn’t touch the slider.
The dependent problem is that the text is breaking and the text box doesn’t look well (if unclear please have a look on out site, than you’ll know what I mean).
I mean you misunderstood me.
We don’t write any excerpts for out posts. So the slider takes the first few words from the article. I’m not able to customize how many words are displayed.
The slider excerpts will be limited to half the number of words configured for post excerpts in the next update.
If we’d add a separate option for each and every setting that could ever be configured, we’d never finish adding them…
