About this plugin
An excerpt is a (usually) brief, text-only post summary. It is used in various places of a theme when a summary of a post is needed, such as on your blog page and archive pages for terms.
Excerpts are either manually crafted or (usually poorly) automatically extracted from the main post content. Hand crafted ones are better because
- they avoid things like sentences being cut off in the mid…
- they allow you create an actual summary and not just the first x words from the post content
- they allow you to do better SEO targeting
- they look better
This plugin will enforce the use of hand-crafted excerpts by your users by preventing a post without an excerpt from being published.
Classic editor support is based on the work done by Scott Walkinshaw and other contributors, found here.
