Sometimes View full post button go out of the Graphene Slider due to increased excerpt length. Default excerpt length in WordPress is 55 words. You can override this by using a plugin or custom excerpt length function. But it affects the excerpt everywhere. So, here is a function which affects only the Graphene Slider excerpt length.
Put this code anywhere between opening <?php and closing ?> php tags in the child theme functions.php file.
function graphene_custom_slider_excerpt_length(){ graphene_set_excerpt_length( 35 ); } add_action( 'graphene_before_slider', 'graphene_custom_slider_excerpt_length' ); |
It limits the slider excerpt length to 35 words. You can change it to make your slider happy! 
Thanks Syahir!

That’s works perfectly to show only title & hide excerpts, only thing is…there seems to be little overlay above the title background.

Hi, thanks for your help but your code makes my site totally crashed!
I must reinstall the site!
It writes this:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/sportmon/public_html/wp-content/themes/graphene/functions.php:68) in /home/sportmon/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 881
And it doesn’t work anymore!
I just want to keep only titles in the slider!
Thanks
