Hi Bruno ty for the reply.
I am just trying to figure out that code but for some reason it isn't
displaying the post_body when I view the page
Any ideas in how to fix this?
def index():
posts = db(db.posts.id > 0).select(orderby=~db.posts.id, limitby=(0,
10))
for post in posts:
if len(post.post_body) > 1000: # Preview
should be about 1000 chars
index = post.post_body.find("</p>", 1000, -1) + 4 # find the
index of the next </p> and add 4 chars
post.post_body = post.post_body[0:index] #
replace the body of the post post with short version
return dict(rows=posts)
