    Hi Mark,

    I’m trying to customise the nodebb-plugin-recent-cards widget that I have on my forum, I would like it to show … at the end of box so it doesn’t look so untidy, is this something that’s possible?

    Thanks as always 😃

    @JAC I’ve added this CSS block on your site

    .recent-cards-plugin .topic-info {
        height: 8em;
        display: -webkit-box;
        max-width: 200px;
        -webkit-line-clamp: 4;
        -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
        overflow: hidden;
    }
    

    This yields the below

    @phenomlab thank you very much for the assistance Mark, massively appreciated as always.

    The great thing about this is it’s all documented for other NodeBB users that come looking for solutions 😃.

    Looks far better 🤝👍🏻.
