This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to limit the word that is being displayed from a custom field in php.
Solution:
The user is currently using this to display his custom field using PHP
<?php if(types_render_field("author-member-new-bio", array('class'=>''))){?>
<?php echo(types_render_field("author-member-new-bio", array('class'=>''))); ?>
<?php }?>
This can be done by using the wp_trim_words function as you can see from this it can be used to trim the words.
<p class="paragraph-about"><?php echo wp_trim_words( get_field('author_member_new_bio'), 60, '...' ); ?></p>
