In our search we list title, when content is updated and parent title, but we also want to have some more text from the description attribute, i.e. 2 lines from the text which makes it all easier to see what the text is all about..

I use:
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$SearchResult:item.data_map.description}

But get all the text..does anyone know how I can get only 2 lines pr. ResultItem?

Tnx in advance

You can use template operator shorten to shorten the text to a specified number of characters. It also automatically appends "...".

Hi tnx

I tried:
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$SearchResult:item.data_map.description|shorten( 15 )}
but without success.. maybe it doesn't work with attribute_view_gui?
