How to have less preview in News Topics?
Grrr... been staring at the code in everything and cant find any reference and tried search on here and now I'm sulking!!!
On this site

......nice short previews of news articles... on a site I am working on the previews show the whole article... I only want like the first 400 characters and then the reader has to click the more link...
Please put me out of my misery... where's the code to adjust how much of the news is previewed please guys?
I've not modified anything, I just always personally format articles that way so that my home page isn't 3 foot long.
I'm sure what you want to do could be done but I'd imagine the easiest way would be to maybe set the maximum characters in the nuke_stories table.
ok tried everything....
Someone MUST be able to come up with a solution before this wee lass go mental!!
I GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok will test first before I shout too much....
I would've thought changing the hometext field in nuke_stories to maybe varchar and setting the length to maybe 250 should work.
