WordPress: How to Remove the […] from the excerpt

      Comments Off on WordPress: How to Remove the […] from the excerpt

I was trying to remove WordPress’ […] at the end of an excerpt and ended up spending some time looking for a solution. So I though I would share what worked for me. Add this code into the functions.php file in your theme.

function trim_excerpt($text) {
  return rtrim($text,'[…]');
}
add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'trim_excerpt');

And that’s all folks!
