      Hello,

      You have “Comming Soon” mode on so i can not see the page. However, please go to file vc_templates/staff.php and find this line:
      $output .= '<p>'.codeless_text_limit(get_the_excerpt(), 25).'</p>';
      Number 25 is the limit of words to display. Increase it to your wish and save changes.
      Refresh page.
      Let us know.

      Best regards!

      Hi, I’m still having trouble with this. I think something changed with the latest update.

      I’ve changed the code as you suggested in the staff.php file, but it still won’t let the bios be more than about 50-60 words in length.

      See how the text cuts off on the bottom 2 bios on this page: https://innovopro.com/about/

      thanks.

      Hello,

      In file vc_templates/staff.php in the child theme i edited out this line:
      $output .= '<p>'.codeless_text_limit(get_the_excerpt(), 90).'</p>';
      to this:
      $output .= '<p>'.codeless_text_limit(get_the_content(), 190).'</p>';

      The text shows up all now.

      Best regards!

      Thank you. I did that yesterday myself. I tried the number 200.

      Can you think of any reason why it wouldn’t work with 200?

      Hello,

      The difference is not in the number, but in the function. I changed get_the_excerpt() to get_the_content(). We were increasing the excerpt number of words, while you were adding(showing) content instead.

      Let us know if you need further help.

      Best regards!

      OK, thanks for explaining. I thought I was going crazy. Guess not.

      I really appreciate the timely and efficient support.
