    I have built blog page with shorcode thanks to Roman’s support and it’s done but I found that the excerpt on archive pages are not showing. At the moment all of the articles are showing on archive page. I want to excerpt them by setting the number of characters like top page of blog but I couldn’t find the archive page setting. How can I manage this?

    can you please try to add this code to the theme child functions.php if it does what you need:

    function evolve_custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
    return 10;
}

add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'evolve_custom_excerpt_length', 999 );

    I can see slight change as is adding the code to functions.php you gave me. Changing the return value from “10” to “1” or “2” is nearly what I wanted but blog posts of excerpted number of characters are various as you can see now.

    I recommend try for example this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-excerpt/ as this customization requires extra work. Please let me know if it works

    it lools like no use for me. The excerpts are not changed as functions.php with the code and doubled images. Fortunately blog posts are not so many so I will add more tag to each posts one by one. That’s the simplest way I think.

    Thanks for trying to help me.
