  I’m trying to limit blog post description when getting from REST API for widget on my non WP website. I tried different plugins for WP, I tried to set filter:

  function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
      return 100;
  }
  add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'custom_excerpt_length', 9999 );

  Nothing works. How can I make it?

  Hi there,

  Looks like you’re on the wrong forum. It appears that you’re using the self-hosted version of WordPress and you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums:

  These forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org you can read this document:
