 * Hello.
 * We’d added support for an excerpt to the posts, but need assistance to display
   the excerpt via the shortcode. Can you provide some direction?
 *     ```
       function wpcodex_add_excerpt_support_for_testimonials() {
       	add_post_type_support( 'testimonials-widget', 'excerpt' );
       }
       add_action( 'init', 'wpcodex_add_excerpt_support_for_testimonials' );
       ```
   
 * Thanks
