Currently I activate full text for Post Excerpt in Home Page. But I want full text only for Sticky Post and 100 words for all Post Excerpt.

– Use a child-theme https://ronangelo.com/frontier/

– Copy loop-blog.php from the parent-theme to your child-theme folder

– Open your child-theme loop-blog.php and find this line:
```
<?php if ( frontier_option('blog_display', 'excerpt') == 'excerpt' ) : ?>
```
Replace it with this line then save:
```
<?php if ( frontier_option('blog_display', 'excerpt') == 'excerpt' && !is_sticky() ) : ?>
```

Hi Ron

I want to limit post excerpt without using additional plugin.

Can I try a simple code like this? One of our theme used site limit the post excerpt to 100 words SEE – http://upcomingrailwayrecruitment.in/

add these lines in function.php file
```
function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
        return 20;
}
add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'custom_excerpt_length', 999 )
```
