| Jan 5, 2018 at 16:31 | comment | added | Per | Life savers. Thank you guys :) I managed to guess by just typing logical stuff that $recent["post_content"] got the content, but didn't manage to trim it. Hoped that $recent[post_excerpt"] worked, but no such luck ;) Thank your your help. both of you @PatJ and Nicolai | |

@PatJ get_the_content doesn't take the ID, but he has the post_content already available

Since you're outside The Loop, you might need to use wp_trim_words( get_the_content( $recent["ID"] ), 20 );.
