Problem: I am unable to set a long excerpt length in a Single Field block. The length seems to be limited to the number of words or characters in the excerpt.
Solution: Our developers are aware of this limitation and are working on a solution in a future release. For now, a workaround is required. Temporarily edit the previewed post and give it a very long excerpt, then you can edit the Single Field block's word count limit to use a longer excerpt length. Revert the post's excerpt after setting the length correctly, and the longer excerpt length setting will persist until you edit the View again.
