My website - notsonews.com - is powered by wordpress 2.2.1 and this plugin works like a charm. I have posted a “thank you” message and a “do follow” link towards this page on my about pages. Many Thanks!

Hello! I am hoping that your optional excerpt plugin for pages will also let me tap into the excerpt data to return it in a title attribute… possible?
How can I get the optional excerpt for a page by passing the ID of the page? Can I do that?

Casey: Unfortunately
the_excerpt()doesn’t take a post id as an argument but just provides the excerpt of the current post. You will need to setup the$postglobal first by calling get_post(). Something like this should do it (untested!):Comment by westi — 29/12/2007 @ 9:19 am §

Loved the plugin, but upon upgrading to 2.5, I still see the page excerpts on my site, but there is no “optional excerpt” field appended to the write/edit page within the wordpress dasboard to be found. Which means that for new pages I create, I cannot add excerpts, nor can I edit old ones. Help?

Lyanna: Working on a fix for this. This was such a use a forget plugin for me that I had not tried to use it since switching to 2.5 on this site.

Hello,
many thanks for the plugin. For me it seems to work fine. There is only one thing a don’t understand. Whe I open a new page and watch the textarea for the excerpt, there is a lonly inside of it? Do you have any idea why and how to fix this?
Cheers,
Sebastian

… it shows up after saving a page!

Cheers! Just what I was looking for.
Any chance of making the text box a little bigger? I tried changing the plug but couldn’t seem to get it to pass through to the textbox size.
Thanks again.
