   Hey,
   you can use following code:
   

   echo substr(strip_tags($post->post_content), 0, 200);

   I put this way and this doesn´t works: (in the file "includes/loop-bloghome.php")

   <?php

   $cats = get_the_category();
   if(!empty($cats))
   {
   /*
   the_category(', ') ;
   the_content(__('Read more','avia_framework'));
   */
   substr(strip_tags($post->post_content), 0, 200);

   }
   ?>

   Of course it doesn't work. You need to echo the result or save it in a variable....
