Thank you for a beautiful theme! I would like to remove the ellipses that appear after excerpts in the High Responsive theme. I’ve already created a child theme so that I can create custom excerpts for all content, so I’d like the excerpts to just end with a period. I tried some basic Google searches, but none of the suggested code seems to fix the problem. Is there a small tweak to the functions.php?

The site is audrajwolfe.com. As an example, see the … in the text on the featured slider. I want to remove that.

Thanks!

@audrajwolfe: Go to => Child Theme Folder => functions.php and add the following Code.

if ( ! function_exists( 'highresponsive_excerpt_more' ) ) :
	/**
	 * Replaces "[...]" (appended to automatically generated excerpts) with ... and a option from customizer.
	 * @return string option from customizer prepended with an ellipsis.
	 */
	function highresponsive_excerpt_more( $more ) {
		if ( is_admin() ) {
			return $more;
		}

		$more_tag_text = get_theme_mod( 'highresponsive_excerpt_more_text',  esc_html__( 'Continue reading >', 'high-responsive' ) );

		$link = sprintf( '<a href="%1$s" class="more-link"><span class="more-button">%2$s</span></a>',
			esc_url( get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) ),
			/* translators: %s: Name of current post */
			wp_kses_data( $more_tag_text ) . '<span class="screen-reader-text">' . get_the_title( get_the_ID() ) . '</span>'
		);

		return '.' . $link;
	}
endif;
add_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'highresponsive_excerpt_more' );

if ( ! function_exists( 'highresponsive_custom_excerpt' ) ) :
	/**
	 * Adds Continue reading link to more tag excerpts.
	 *
	 * function tied to the get_the_excerpt filter hook.
	 *
	 * @since High Responsive 1.0
	 */
	function highresponsive_custom_excerpt( $output ) {

		if ( has_excerpt() && ! is_attachment() ) {
			$more_tag_text = get_theme_mod( 'highresponsive_excerpt_more_text', esc_html__( 'Continue reading >', 'high-responsive' ) );

			$link = sprintf( '<a href="%1$s" class="more-link"><span class="more-button">%2$s</span></a>',
				esc_url( get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) ),
				/* translators: %s: Name of current post */
				wp_kses_data( $more_tag_text ) . '<span class="screen-reader-text">' . get_the_title( get_the_ID() ) . '</span>'
			);

			$output .= '.' . $link;
		}

		return $output;
	}
endif; // highresponsive_custom_excerpt.
add_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'highresponsive_custom_excerpt' );

Let me know if this works out.
Kind Regards,
