Filters the excerpt length to trim text to.

Description

apply_filters( 'bp_excerpt_length', (int) $length ); 

Parameters (1)

0. $length (int)

Length of returned string, including ellipsis.

Usage

To run the hook, copy the example below.

$length = apply_filters( 'bp_excerpt_length', $length ); 
                         
if ( !empty( $length ) ) { 
                         
   // everything has led up to this point... 
                         
} 
  

The following example is for adding a hook callback.

// define the bp_excerpt_length callback 
function filter_bp_excerpt_length( $length ) { 
    // make filter magic happen here... 
    return $length; 
}; 
         
// add the filter 
add_filter( 'bp_excerpt_length', 'filter_bp_excerpt_length', 10, 1 ); 

To remove a hook callback, use the example below.

// remove the filter 
remove_filter( 'bp_excerpt_length', 'filter_bp_excerpt_length', 10, 1 );
