WP remove dots in the end of post

Question

I'm using WP theme with dynamically loaded posts and 3 dots in the end of the each blog post. I need to remove these 3 dots.

I tried:

1. In index.php:

   1.1 Manually commented dots in template. This removed dots only for first 10 posts and in another 90 post dots reamained.

   1.2 I tried to use .slice(0, -3) to cut off the dots. It didn't work for me. It worked for 10 post without (window).scroll, but when I added it it didn't work at all.

     jQuery(window).scroll(function() {
       jQuery('.hideifneed').each(function(){
           var text = jQuery(this).text();
           var removeDots = text.slice(0, -3)
           console.log(removeDots);
       });
   
   });
   

2. Input pieces of code in the end of functions.php. None of the code below helped me.

I tried this(2.1):

 function new_excerpt_more( $more ) {
       return '';
    }
    add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');

And this(2.2):

function change_excerpt( $more ) {
        if(post_type_exists('services')){
           return '';
        }
     return '...';
}
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'change_excerpt'); 

And this (2.3): <?php $excerpt = get_the_excerpt(); echo $excerpt;?>

And this (2.4):

function custom_excerpt() {
 $text=preg_replace( "/\\[…\\]/",'place here whatever you want to replace',get_the_excerpt());
echo '<p>'.$text.'</p>';
}

And this (2.5): <?php remove_filter('the_excerpt', 'wpautop'); ?> And I also tried to rewrite the excerpt function (2.6):

function wp_new_excerpt($text)
{
    if ($text == '')
    {
        $allowed_ends = array('.', '!', '?');
        $text = get_the_content('');
        $text = strip_shortcodes( $text );
        $text = apply_filters('the_content', $text);
        $text = str_replace('...', ']]>', $text);
        $text = strip_tags($text);
        $text = nl2br($text);
        $excerpt_length = apply_filters('excerpt_length', 10000);
        $words = explode(' ', $text, $excerpt_length + 1);
        if (count($words) > $excerpt_length) {
            array_pop($words);
            array_push($words, '[]');
            $text = implode(' ', $words);
        }
    }
    return $text;
}
remove_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'wp_trim_excerpt');
add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'wp_new_excerpt');

What else can I try? Do you have any ideas?

Edited: The only thing that works in my case - in admin panel > post > post settings > Excerpt Off. This removes dots only for one post, so it is not really an option

Answer 1

For me it works this:

function new_excerpt_more($more) {
    global $post;
    return '';
}
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');
