Excerpt character limiter

Description

WordPress Excerpts should be short, you know.

But when a user writes a lot, you might want to limit the number of characters for the excerpt panel: that’s where the Excerpt Character Limiter plugin comes handy!

It will basically add a character countdown to the panel titlebar, and it will truncate the text when available characters drop to zero.
Simple but effective!

Installation

  1. Upload excerpt-character-limiter-1.1 folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
