You’re looking at the code wrong. If there is an excerpt it’s not going to affect that line you changed. Are you actually entering text into the excerpt field in the post edit? try changing it to this to see if it’s even working: if (!is_search()) { echo get_the_content(); } else { echo get_the_content(); }
You can explode the content of excerpt by dot. For example: $text = “Morbi consequat tempor augue. Nec fringilla eros auctor scelerisque. Etiam in ullamcorper tellus. Sed ac dui rutrum.”; $pieces = explode(“.”, $text); echo $pieces[1]; // get second sentence = Nec fringilla eros auctor scelerisque Maybe this can help you.
