Multiple Excerpt WordPress

Excerpt is a short description of the post content.  To add excerpt in wordpress we use ” the_excerpt( ) ” & it adds a little description of the post.

But if we want to use different excerpt for different post types then we can approach like this :-

<?php 
function multiple_excerpt($more) 
{
    global $post;

    if($post->post_type == 'post-type-name')
      return ' <a class="main-color" title="read more" href="'. get_permalink() . '"> More Info...</a>';

    return ' <a class="main-color" title="show more" href="'. get_permalink() . '">[...]</a>';
}

add_filter('excerpt_more', 'multiple_excerpt');
?>

If we want to use excerpt of more content on a post type ( i.e. post ) and less content on  some custom post type then we can also customise its length according to the post type.

For this we can approach like this:-

<?php
function new_excerpt_length($length) {
  global $post;
  if ($post->post_type == 'post')
    return 50;
  elseif ($post->post_type == 'post-type-name')
    return 22;
  else
    return 26;
  
}
add_filter('excerpt_length', 'new_excerpt_length');
?>
