How can I show the article digest instead of all text in main page? about hugo-theme-casper HOT 8 CLOSED

I think you should use manual summary, <!--more-->. Without worry about the length of the characters (which is used by automatic summary)

Do you mean like the summary of the content?

Yes.

Thank you.

I have read it and I suppose it has something to do with the character. In Chinese a word has length 2 may have 8(or more) length after translating to English word.

So, Could you tell me how can I set limit to the summary of the content. Thank you in advance.

Hello @longkai, did the @dahoba's solution fixed your issue ?

from hugo-theme-casper.

In config.toml, set as follows.

hasCJKLanguage = true

See https://gohugo.io/content-management/summaries/

The Hugo-defined summaries are set to use word count calculated by splitting the text by one or more consecutive white space characters. If you are creating content in a CJK language and want to use Hugo’s automatic summary splitting, set hasCJKLanguage to true in you site configuration.
