The Get Better Excerpt plugin works almost identical to the built in get_the_excerpt() and the_excerpt() functions except it returns whole words instead of cutting off the excerpt as the existing function does.

FAQ
- How do I display the results?
-
Insert the following code into your WordPress theme files:
- General results
-
Without passing any parameters, the plugin will return ten results or fewer depending on how many posts you have.
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt();
- Altering the before and after values
-
By default the plugin wraps your code in list item (<li>) tags but you can specify how to format the results using the following code:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘before=<p>&after=</p>’);
- Adding a Link
-
If you’d like to link to the post (remember it’s not live yet) you can do so by calling:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘link=true’);
- How many words?
-
You can specify the number of words returned using the option:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘words=20’);
- Skip the excerpt?
-
If you would like to load the content directly, skipping the entered excerpt:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘skipexcerpt=true’);
- Include a trailing character?
-
By default the plugin includes a … after the excerpt, you can remove it or change it by altering:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘trail= …’);
- Return a whole sentence
-
If you would like to return whole sentences rather than words, you can control the number of sentences to return:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘sentence=1’);
- Echo vs. Return
-
Finally, if you’d like to copy the results into a variable you can return the results as follows:
thisismyurl_get_better_excerpt(‘show=false’);
