    This isn’t currently a built-in feature of this plugin – it outputs the_excerpt() by default.

    If you’re looking to customize the output length of the_excerpt(), check this article:

    I hope that helps!

    Yes, it should.

    If I do not enter excerpt what to the plugin show

    This is more a function of WordPress, than the plugin. By default WordPress shows 55 words for the_excerpt().

    From https://developer.ww.wp.xz.cn/reference/functions/the_excerpt/:

    An auto-generated excerpt will also have all shortcodes and tags removed. It is trimmed down to a word-boundary and the default length is 55 words.

    So, if you don’t explicitly define an excerpt, WordPress will auto-generate one based on your content.
