Insert notes in each first post after specif. number of char

[mark007]

Hi,

I would like to insert notes für guests in each first post of a topic after a specific number of characters.

For example after 255 characters of the post.

It would be great if somebody could help with the code, that I have to put in postContainer template (?) to realize that.

Many thanks in advance!

The posts are now full HTML. You can’t just cut it off after a certain amount of characters. That could break the page terribly. 

You can hide entire posts though, like this plugin does nicely:

 Thanks for your answer. So no way ... ? Hide entire posts is no option for me, just a note after a few lines.

You can hide lines with CSS, if that helps you. The IPS 4 framework offers that. 

<div data-ipstruncate data-ipstruncate-type="remove" data-ipstruncate-size="2 lines">
 This post gets cut off if it gets longer than 2 lines
</div>

I'll have a think about adding this to the above plugin.
