Set excerpts of the latest post instead of the first one

It can be possible to show last post instead original post in excerpt?

Hi @david,

I have two questions, please! Does this component allow the excerpt to be of the last/newest post in a topic? If it doesn’t, does this feature exist anywhere?

Thanks!

It can be possible to show last post instead original post in excerpt?

I’m afraid not - it can only pull the thumbnails from the first post of a topic.

Okay thanks! So is there any other way we could display an excerpt of the last post rather than the first post?

[satonotdead]

That could be great, it’s more SEO and engagement friendly than original idea.

+1 for that!
