Did you read the comments though? There's some example code there that will help you get started at least

from anchor-cms.

1. Are you referring to this forum? https://forums.anchorcms.com/
2. Development has very much slowed down but it should be still functional as a CMS
3. You should be able to use php substr to truncate the text, and then use an if statement to check if it's the latest post

1. yes, since you don't have more than one
2. that sucks
3. sure, how do i exactly get all the posts but the first to apply substr? (even if they are paginated)

Ah I see, thanks for reporting. Don't appreciate the tone, these GitHub issues aren't for support queries. I just did a quick search and someone has done the same thing and shared it in the forum https://forums.anchorcms.com/d/2351-trim-post-content-based-on-length
