Teaser Text

Hi,

If I make a new 'content field' in the 'content types' can I have this field be the teaser text to your content blocks... say we call this new content_field 'content'?

on the template file around line 384 there is the line   $body = $node->body;   inside the function publisher_node_teaser area.. can this be changed to point to a specific 'content_field'

Thanks!

Hey, I beleive if you go in

Hey,

I beleive if you go in through administration pages you can set the teaser length under "post settings." From there, you can add a new "text field" in content types - add field - multiline text, set the weight to be above "body," and set a word limit of say...200 or so, so that will show up as your teaser and the "body" will show up afterwards.

Actually come to think of it I should do that myself, it would sove some problems ive been having.

Good looks!

Thanks, but... I actually

Thanks, but...

I actually want to control the text in the java tabs, block theme 1.

Any ideas on how to turn off the body text and switch to my own 'content' teaser text?
