The title says it all. I used excerptHTML no problem on a masterpage. In reusing it on a different page with the masterpage explicitly assigned, and wanting a smaller excpert nothing printed until I had a count of '35' set. Then one word printed. I can't say I experienced the parser as being linear with how a human being parses text, but it seemed to go up about one word at a time up to '40'. I stoppped worry about it at that point, and decided to just use the default of '50', although I had originally been trying to get just 25 words.
FWIW my code was:
I am making due with the default count of '50', but I thought I would report this to make sure it was intended as a feature. I had the same experience with cms:excerpt as well.
FWIW my code was:
- Code: Select all
<cms:pages masterpage='blog.php' limit='3' orderby='publish_date' order='desc' >
.

.
<cms:excerptHTML count='25' ignore="img tbl" >
<cms:show blog_content />
</cms:excerptHTML>

</cms:pages>
