Shorter event preview in "photo" view?

[Daniel]

Hi, I use the photo view for my default view. I’d like to shorten the amount of text displayed in the preview, to make it easier to quickly scroll through many events, especially on a phone or other small screen. I looked for the setting to change this, but can’t find it. How can I do this please? Thank you,

Good evening Daniel and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

Actually, the length of the excerpt is based on how your specific WordPress + WordPress theme combo is set up for excerpts in general.

For example, you can have a site-wide length for all excerpts: http://smallenvelop.com/limit-post-excerpt-length-in-wordpress/

As alternative, you can actually control excerpts using the “Excerpt” metabox in your events.

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!
