get_page_excerpt() not working - bluzer - 2018-05-20
I am building a test site and am having trouble getting get_page_excerpt(250, $file) to work. there are no errors in development tools, debug, errorlog, or on screen.
<section>
<a href="<?php echo $file; ?>" <- this works
<h2><?php echo $page; ?></h2> <-this works
</a><?php get_page_excerpt(250,$file);<- this doesn't work
//getPageContent($file); ?> <- this works
<p><a href="<?php echo $file; ?>">Read More...</a><- this works
</p>
</section>
Any suggestions?

What is $file?

This function does not expect $file

get_page_excerpt() displays an excerpt of the current page. It doesn't work for other pages, since there's no parameter to specify another page slug.
This may work for page with slug $slug :
Code:
<?php echo getExcerpt(returnPageContent($slug), 250); ?>RE: get_page_excerpt() not working - bluzer - 2018-05-21
