Hi,

within CORONA's template builder I need a template with among other things 3 columns, showing the posts from certain categories, but I don't have here the possiblity to show there the post title and the post excerpt - not the whole post and not only the title+image.

I would like to have the image + post title + post excerpt.

Is this possible in any way?

I hope, that nothing has went wrong with the excerpt code, as we have discussed these days here:

Thanks.

Update:

I just discovered, that the automatic excerpt as defined in the functions.php of CORONA works not on dynamic templates.

In dynamic templates as shown above, an excerpt of a post is only shown, when I limit the post text with the more-tag.

Isn't this possible with the "automatic" excerpt of the functions.php?

You can try following - open up includes/helper-templates.php and replace following code:

$content = get_the_content('<span class="inner_more">'.__('Read more  &rarr;','avia_framework').'</span>');

with:

if(is_single()){
$content = get_the_content('<span class="inner_more">'.__('Read more  &rarr;','avia_framework').'</span>');
					$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);
					$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $content);
}else{
					$content = apply_filters('the_excerpt', get_the_excerpt());
					$content .= '<p><a class="more-link" href="'. get_permalink().'"><span class="inner_more">'.__('Read more  &rarr;','avia_framework').'</span></a></p>';
}

Works great, thanks!

If someone needs this, too:
the code, that you need to search for, is twice in the includes/helper-templates.php; replace the part in line 856 (and not 598) with the code shown above.
