#wordpress is show too much text the the_excerpt, so we need to customize it for showing shorted excerpt paragraph. copy this code and paste into your current active theme’s functions.php file

function my_custom_excerpt_length($length){
return 100;
}
add_filter(‘excerpt_length’, ‘my_custom_excerpt_length’, 999);
