    Hello,

    I’d like to change the excerpt length on blog posts that show on our homepage, but keep them as normal everywhere else. Is there a filter or function I could use to do this?

    Thanks,

    James

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Forgot to say we’re using visual composer to insert the posts

    Hello,

    For clarify. Do you want to change number posts on home page?
    If yes, you can do it. Navigate to Pages->Edit home page->Post grid->edit and select how much you want.
    Look at screenshot please: http://prntscr.com/53m046

    Hi Robert, thanks for your reply.

    As stated in my original post I want to change the excerpt length, not the amount of posts that show.

    Thanks, James

    Hello,

    Sorry, but we don’t have such feature in our theme.

    ok Robert thank you. Can I just ask if the theme uses the standard wordpress excerpt function or a custom one?

    In this case the Visual Composer plugin affects for it.
