Improvement

Enhanced post excerpt generation

Post excerpts are now automatically generated when you don't provide one manually.

How it works

The algorithm:

  1. Strips all markdown/HTML formatting

  2. Finds the first meaningful paragraph (skips headings)

  3. Takes the first 160 characters

  4. Avoids cutting mid-word or mid-sentence

Where excerpts appear

  • Post list in the public changelog

  • RSS feed <description> field

  • Email notification preview text

  • Social media cards (Open Graph description)

  • Widget popup entries

Manual override

You can always set a custom excerpt in the post editor. The auto-generated one is only used as a fallback.

The 160-character limit is optimized for Google search result snippets and social media card previews.
