Hi,

I am trying to show the read more button, only if the word limit is exceeded or if there is fulltext.
The part with the fulltext is working finr but I could not found a param or something that indicates this.

So what I tried to do was to strpos for the "..." in the introtext.
And here comes the problem, the strpos always returns false and wil searching I discovered that the problem was the enconding (utf8mb4).

I tried mb_strpos,
I tried mb_strpos($this->item->introtext, "...", 0, 'UTF-8')
I striped tags from the introtext.

No matter what I do I get false.

Anyone has any idea hoa to do that ?

Thank you

You can try using the php.net/manual/en/function.str-word-count.php function.
