Bug with Dynamic Content Excerpt in Bloc Content Template Element

Hi there,

Not sure if I understand.

Can you link me to the page in question?

Thanks.

Hi Leo,

Thanks for your answer.
In fact the problem i had (which you can see with the loom video) was because I added the snippet :

function manual_auto_excerpt($text) {
    global $post;
    $raw_excerpt = $text;
    if ( '' == $text ) {
        $text = get_the_content('');
        $text = strip_shortcodes( $text );
        $text = apply_filters('the_content', $text);
        $text = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $text);
    }    
    $text = strip_tags($text);
    /*** Change the excerpt words length. If you like. ***/
    $excerpt_length = apply_filters('excerpt_length', 30);
     
    /*** Change the Excerpt ending. If you like. ***/
    $excerpt_end = ' <a href="'. get_permalink($post->ID) . '">' . '&raquo; Continue Reading.' . '</a>'; 
    $excerpt_more = apply_filters('excerpt_more', ' ' . $excerpt_end);
     
    $text = wp_trim_words( $text, $excerpt_length, $excerpt_more ); 
    return apply_filters('wp_trim_excerpt', $text, $raw_excerpt); 
}
add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'manual_auto_excerpt', 5);

In order for me to show an excerpt content of my post with “WP Show Posts” plugin.

When I deactivate this snippet, I don't have the problem of saving my post anymore BUT it's impossible for me to show an excerpt content with the “Dynamic Content Excerpt” AND in the “WP Show Posts”.

So the main problem is that it's impossible for me to show an excerpt content and I don't know why ^^

Hi there,

can you share a link to the site where i can see the WP Show Posts so i can understand why that snippet is required.

Yes of course, the website is not yet online but i've sent you in private a link available for 48h. The "WP Show Post" is under "NOS OFFRES"

Hmmm... this is a tricky one.
So the the Excerpt ( without the code ) is empty as WordPress ignores any post content inside a nested block eg. Group Block, Container Block etc. when it generates the excerpt. The only real solution for that is to use a Manual Excerpt in the post, or DON'T create posts inside a Container ( or Group Block ).

Is there any need for adding the Container Block to the post ?

Ok I understand. Indeed if I use Manual Excerpt it works (I didn't test if the number of characters works).
For the post in a Container Block, in fact I didn't do that, I've installed "Realtor" template.

I have a question about WP Show Posts but not sure it's the right place to ask. Is there a way to add Custom Post meta ?

Might be best to remove the container blocks.
For a detailed answer ask over in the WP Show Posts forum.

But just a quick link here to see the Hooks that are available in WP Show Posts:

https://wpshowposts.com/support/topic/bbpress-metadata-and-dates-in-wpshowposts/#post-28854

Which you can use to hook in your custom post meta.

Thank you David :)

You're welcome
