Great question. The way I’d do it is unhook the genesis content function, then create a new function that checks the post’s size before displaying content.
Here’s a code snippet: http://www.billerickson.net/code/genesis-grid-change-length-of-content-in-grid/
I haven’t tested this, so let me know if it works.
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond!
Looks like I’m in way over my head. I’m far from being PHP proficient, so I studied your code snippet and pasted it into my functions.php in its entirety, thinking I could then tweak it until I get something I need. Unfortunately though it is giving me the “unexpected T_VARIABLE” error (in the original version), and I’m utterly clueless…
I did take out the code snippet and the error disappeared, but I can’t tell what may be wrong with it.
I’m hesitant to ask for any more of your time, but with a deadline breathing down my neck I’m desperate.
Thanks!
It looks like I had forgotten a ) on line 12. I’ve updated the code and tested to confirm it works: https://gist.github.com/4179753
