Query Loop Post excerpt lenght in pixel

Hi there,

it is possible to trim the excerpt by characters with some PHP
Or using CSS you could trim the text to a number of lines.

And does this apply to just Query Loops ? Or anywhere an excerpt is displayed ?

Can I see a page with the query loop ? I need to see how the excerpt is being displayed to provide the correct CSS.

OK.

1. add this CSS to your site:

.clamp-lines-3 {
    display: -webkit-box;
    -webkit-line-clamp: 3;
    -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
    white-space: normal;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

2. select the Headline block that is displaying the excerpt and in Advanced > Additional CSS Classes add: clamp-lines-3

NOTE: in your query loop post templates, I notice that the Headline blocks for the Post Meta and the Excerpt have a HTML Tag of H2. You may want to consider setting them to a DIV or a P

Glad to be of help!
