    Hello,
    If you provide the excerpt content you (in excerpt field) will not be able to limit it, because it would not have any sense.
    The except length is just for a excerpt, which is taken from the wordpress editor (from the article)
    Thanks

    There is no words to explain my face right now. 

    Do you understand English? Maybe I should write to you in some other leanguage?

    ONCE AGAING

    AS I SAID

    How to limit length of excerpt in THIS SPECIFIC SHORTCODE CALLED "BLOG", by the number of LETTERS (a character representing one or more of the sounds used in speech; any of the symbols of an alphabet), instead of WORDS (a single distinct meaningful element of speech or writing, used with others (or sometimes alone) to form a sentence and typically shown with a space on either side when written or printed; you know - combination of a lot of letters)?

    TO BE CLEAR ONCE AGAIN:

    There is excerpt. It is a combination of 26 first words. But I want it to be for example first 150 letters. HOW TO DO IT?

    I know that you ask for a BLOG shortcode, please do what I told you in my previous post, you have to change the value in field I showed you on the screenshot.

    You have to provide the number of words which will be displayed in the excerpt of the content, which is inserted in the Wordpress Editor, take a look:
    WP Editor content: https://prnt.sc/rf5va3
    Theme Options: https://prnt.sc/rf5vjj
    Page with a BLOG shortcode: https://prnt.sc/rf5vw1

    Remember, that if you provide the content in the Muffin Builder or you will provide the excerpt in dedicated field for excerpt, it will be not cut (not limited to the theme options)

    Thanks
