Thought you were a hacker emailing me for support lol. You have either a file missing or most likely the directory messed up. This file cant be loaded. /wp-content/themes/choices/wp-content/themes/neurocore/js/neurocore.js Before we start chopping down the forest lets see if it burns first. Also I have 1.7 version of Choices and my line 36 has no code. And the theme doesn't have this function at all (though that doesn't mean much since it probably is calling it from framework the roundabout way). Thanks, Nick andreanapier1985 on "Auto Excerpt Content" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/auto-excerpt-content#post-105227 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 22:53:25 +0000 andreanapier1985 105227@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ I also followed IMadeItMarket and Dude's recommendations but when I reloaded the blog page it was unable to load the blog posts and had written instead: Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_the_permalink() in /home/neuro/public_html/trial/wp-content/themes/neurocore/includes/loop-index.php on line 36 Thoughts on a solution?

Please send credentials to usjahm (at) gmail (dot) com. Please make sure I can install plugins without a need for ftp login/password , otherwise please provide that as well. Please reference this post in the email and if you have anything else to add, please do. :) Thanks, Nick IMadeItMarket on "Auto Excerpt Content" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/auto-excerpt-content#post-104566 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 19:42:58 +0000 IMadeItMarket 104566@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi there, thanks for the code and reply! I copied the code into a new file and gave it a try but still the same results. Anytime the loop-index.php file is loaded on a page when that code is present the whole page loads white; no content whatsoever. It only loads the first two DIVs of the site and no headers. If it would be easier I can give you access to the FTP / WP site, just send me an email. I appreciate the help! Dude on "Auto Excerpt Content" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/auto-excerpt-content#post-104249 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 05:40:45 +0000 Dude 104249@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Not sure why it's not working in your case. Try to open up loop-index.php, delete the entire code in the file and insert the code from here: <a href="https://gist.github.com/InoPlugs/9112ea56006e6e40b3ad" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/InoPlugs/9112ea56006e6e40b3ad</a> If it still doesn't work please give us more details - "just breaks everything" doesn't help us to find the problem.

The following is how the code looks after I replaced line #31: <code>$current_post['slider'] = new avia_slideshow($the_id); $current_post['title'] = get_the_title(); if(is_single()){ $current_post['content'] = get_the_content(__('Read more','avia_framework').' →'); }else{ $current_post['content'] = get_the_excerpt(). '<a href="'.get_the_permalink().'">Read more →</a>'; } $current_post['subtitle'] = $subtitle ? "<div class='subtitle_intro'>".apply_filters('the_content',$subtitle)."</div>" : ""; </code> I know I'm doing something wrong since the code breaks the whole site. Any insight would be fantastic, thanks!!

PHP can be a bit picky :) Regards, Devin IMadeItMarket on "Auto Excerpt Content" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/auto-excerpt-content#post-103356 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 18:25:46 +0000 IMadeItMarket 103356@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi there, where would you replace this exactly? I found the line you mentioned (line 31 in the loop-index.php) but replacing it with the code you gave just breaks everything. Let me know if you have any suggestions, I would definitely like to have shortened excerpts in my category pages / blog listings. Thanks! Dude on "Auto Excerpt Content" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/auto-excerpt-content#post-100650 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 16:47:04 +0000 Dude 100650@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Open up wp-content\themes\choices\includes\loop-index.php and replace: <pre><code>$current_post['content'] = get_the_content(__('Read more','avia_framework').' →');</code></pre> with: <pre><code>if(is_single()){ $current_post['content'] = get_the_content(__('Read more','avia_framework').' &rarr;'); }else{ $current_post['content'] = get_the_excerpt().

See: <a href="http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/" rel="nofollow">http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/</a> Regards, Devin eddygame on "Auto Excerpt Content" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/auto-excerpt-content#post-100063 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 16:31:24 +0000 eddygame 100063@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, Is there a way to automatically reduce the post to a short excerpt for viewing in the blog/catergory area? I would like to just have a list of the posts and images along with the first line of the post rather than the whole post. Currently I have to use a plugin to get this, is there something I can add to the functions?
