Enable Excerpt in WordPress pages

In default, the excerpts are only available for WordPress posts.

But we can easily enable this excerpt functionality to our WordPress pages with few lines of codes.

Just add below code snippet in to WordPress theme’s / child theme’s functions.php file.

add_action( 'init', 'add_excerpt_to_pages' );
function add_excerpt_to_pages() {
 add_post_type_support( 'page', 'excerpt' );
}
