excerpt

Previous  Top  Next

A string variable containing the excerpt of the article. This is empty if the post has no excerpt.

It can also be used as a boolean variable; it is true if it contains a value.

The excerpt of an article is what the author enters into the Excerpt text area in the Post Article or Edit Article page.



Example
This puts the excerpt the article inside a green box:

<table>

<tr><td bgcolor="#BFD7BF">

{{excerpt}}

</td></tr>

</table>

Here's what its output looks like:

Cras dictum. Mauris et purus. Donec consequat tempus nisl.
