Hi, Without striping the html tags, wordlimit can not be calculated. You can solve the issue by filling the Excerpt box of each post. Or, you can use one Custom field and display the meta value with shortcode.

Thanks for your reply. Using the Excerpt box strips all the html so that is not a solution. However, your second option sounds interesting, but I just can’t seem to get it to work. I’ve created a custom field called “custom excerpt”, but not sure what shortcode to use to display it? Can you give an example?
Thanks,
Adrian
To display the value of meta field “custom excerpt”, use – [post_meta key="custom excerpt"]. that’s it.

Strange. I made the custom field with the Types plugin (http://wp-types.com) but it didn’t work. So I downloaded the Advanced Custom Fields plugin and it worked.
Thanks for your help. I’ll leave a good review.

WP Types plugin use a prefix to the meta field name, not exactly sure, but possibly ‘wt_’. Where ACF uses the exact name you set.
Thanks for the review.
I hope i could come up with the fade effect for ajax pagination. But you know, the small effect creates an issues. When the new item fades in, it sometime goes below the old item till old item is completely hidden. To prevent that, most (or all) of the developer use absolute positioning. But i will try to come up with. Good luck.
