be added.

{/exp:exp:snippet}

Parameters:

* {total} = default 500

* {word} = Tells the plugin if you want it to end the snippet on the last full word. Set to “true” by default.

* {ellipsis} = Set to ‘...’ by default. You can pass any text that you want appended to the end of the snippet.

Very handy little add-on for making excerpts from entries the same length, this helps with formatting and as it’s done automatically the user doesn’t need to remember to add a read more link into each entry.
