Support for excerpts? Please?

    Hi there – this plugin is great, very easy out of the box. It’s my testimonials that are the problem. People are writing paragraphs and paragraphs. How can I set it to use excerpts instead of full text?

    We would far rather use actual exerpts than the “read more” feature. We would like to be able to select a sentence or two to feature, not just the first xx chars, which is usually people complaining about how awful other products are.

    If this is not doable now, what can we do to encourage that this feature be added asap?

    To support excerpts I modified to widget to output excerpts if available:

    gc-tesimonials/testimonials.php:line 816
    change:

    if( strlen($testimonial->post_content) > $words) {

    to:

    if(isset($testimonial->post_excerpt) && $testimonial->post_excerpt != ''){
    echo '<div class="content">'.wpautop($testimonial->post_excerpt).'</div>';
    }
    elseif( strlen($testimonial->post_content) > $words) {

    You will need to echo out some of your variables and see what is not defined.
