removing […] from posts without content

[Erin]

Hello, I saw the other post about how to hide the excerpt from appearing. I added the code you provided to remove the excerpt but now […] is appearing after the post title. Is there any way to remove this? Thank you in advance.

Hi Erin,

Can you please send me your site url ?

Thanks

Hello Masonry Guy,

Love your plugin.

I am also having the same problem as the above poster. Please can you tell me how to remove the […] from posts where the excerpt has been set to 0:

add_filter('excerpt_length', 'my_excerpt_length');
function my_excerpt_length($length) {
   if (is_tag()) {  
        return 100;
    } else {
        return 0; //For the workshops page (WP Masonry Layout Plugin)
    }
}

Many thanks

Hi Oliver,

In that case you need to add this filter as well.

function trim_excerpt($text) {
return rtrim($text,'[…]’);
}
add_filter(‘get_the_excerpt’, ‘trim_excerpt’);

Thanks
