Sure, a tag item list view is at

www.winelands.co.za/wine-farms/all-wine-farms

Intro text is limited to 30 characters.

Wow! That looks great, Josh. I tried making that change to my generic.php file but it did not work. Below, I have posted the generic.php file from my override directory. Also, here is how my current tag listing looks:

hi sorry about the late reply.

I use only one generic.php as I don't think its actually possible to use more than one themed generic.php. I believe that generic.php should be placed within the /templates/YOURJOOMLATEMPLATE/html/com_k2/ and not within an override sub folder

(community.getk2.org/notes/Templating_in_K2 paragraph 4 and 5)

 

Try using only one generic.php and moving the &lt;?php echo K2HelperUtilities::wordLimit($item-&gt;introtext,30); ?&gt;

to inside the genericItemIntroText div. just below the uncommented &lt;?php /* echo $item-&gt;introtext; */?&gt;

 

Like such:
