Something is going wrong with my extensions page.. Anyway, here is the readme file:
Description
Truncates text from a textarea. This extension is gentle with html and words.
Installation
Unzip, rename the folder to truncated_texarea, then enable in the control panel as usual.
Usage
This extension adds a new field (truncated textare). This textfield can truncate text (or html) to a specified length. To see the truncated text in your xml, enable it in your datasource, in the same way you would put formatted/unformatted text in.
edit: I will push it to git in a few moments
Somehow the upload file field has wrapped @meta
with double quotes, making the attribute invalid. I’ll look at getting a fix in.
Thanks!
Allen, the page is still down..
Any luck on finding a fix?
Bug #76 has been filed.
Super duper! I forgot there was a bug tracker for the website aswell..
Fixed. Not sure why the mime type would have been sent wrapped in double quotes. Weird browser quirk perhaps.
Does it work in 2.1.2? I don’t see my tekst truncated!
This is not directly related, but close enough.
Is it possible to truncate like Wordpress, where you add a <!-- More -->
to create a page break?
