Excerpt Editor provides a convenient place for creating and editing all excerpts. It can also add custom excerpts for pages (not possible without a plugin). Features: auto-creating excerpts when publishing new Posts and Pages, displaying customisable excerpts from the content for posts without an excerpt, appending excerpts from the latest posts to each Post or from the sub-pages to each Page, replacing the content for all archive and tags pages with excerpts (eliminates content duplication for SEO).
The excerpts can be used in the RSS feed, displayed on the Home or Archive pages and/or used for meta descriptions. The excerpts can be in any language supported by WordPress and the plugin contains .pot file to facilitate translations.

Note: This plugin does not support the block editor but should continue to work without issue when using it with custom post types and the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/" rel="ugc">Classic Editor Plugin</a>.
Before WordPress displays a post’s content, the content gets passed through multiple filters to ensure that it safely appears how you enter it within the editor.
One of these filters is <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpautop" title="wpautop" rel="nofollow ugc">wpautop</a>, which replaces double line breaks with <code></code> tags, and single line breaks with <code> </code> tags. However, this filter sometimes causes issues when you are inputting a lot of HTML markup in the post editor.
This plugin displays a checkbox in the publish meta box of the post edit screen that disables the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpautop" title="wpautop" rel="nofollow ugc">wpautop</a> filter for that post.
Also adds a ‘wpautop’, or ‘no-wpautop’ class to the post_class filter to help with CSS styling.

Toggle wpautop

Easily disable the default wpautop filter on a post by post basis.
