The "Item Introtext word limit" field can be filled and is correctly saved into the database but I can't make it work.
I cannot see any differences in the frontend whether it's filled or not.
For example, I try to put a word limit of 30 words but when I display the category and its related items on the frontpage OR in the K2 content module, all the words of the introtexts of the items are fully displayed :(
The word limit doesn't seem to work.

Is it a bug or am I missing something ?
Thanks !

Used versions : Joomla 1.5.10 fresh install, K2 Pre-Release.

Fixed in v2 final. Thanks for reporting this issue to us.

You're welcome Lefteris ;)
Thank you for your work ! K2 is already impressive and I'm pretty sure it will soon be perfect !

Lefteris, I'm sorry to bother you but this bug is in fact slowing me a lot in my dev.
Could you please explain me how to fix it by myself ?

Thanks a lot for your answer.

i got same problem sometimes it work\s sometimes not propably you need turn off some options...

Hi everyone,

Thanks for K2 - really great component.
I have small problem with introtext word limit in "Item view options in category listings" in Category Editor. It seems it does not work :(
I am using Joomla 1.5.14 with K2 v. 2.0
Has anyone got solution, or maybe there is some workaround for that?

Regards

Hi again,

Problem solved! I updated K2 to it's latest compilation 090909, and it works just great!
No more problem with introtext word limit.

Many thanks!

I use the latest version, 090909 downloaded tonight, and the word-limit doesn't do anything.

Any tips?

Hi. Please make sure that you have setup correctly your parameters. Also note that word limit applies when you are viewing items from one category not multiple.

I think I set up everything properly, I had it working on another site and I copied the parameters from there, any specific parameter I should be vary of.

I am viewing one category through a menu choice
