   Hi im using the last version of the plugin,
   my website is basta.com.ar
   and all work fine, but the tweet are incomplete.
   i double check in the database fields, and the tweet lost the last 10 characters.
   Any ideas?

   this happens when the plugin add the "RT @someuser"

   Confirmed.

   I can't work out where the truncation of the text is happening... I've gone over the code, can't find a reference to when the ellipsis is added to the tweet text, can't find anywhere where the maximum length of the tweet entry is set nor where 'RT @someuser' is added either.

   Right

   The problem is with the handling of the JSON being returned by Twitter - if native retweet is being used then the responses contains the truncated version with the addition of 'RT @someuser' and later contains the original tweet text:

   {...
   "retweeted_status":
        {"created_at":"Thu Dec 27 16:XX:XX +0000 2012",
         "id":2843313239743XXX,
         "id_str":"2843313239743XXXXX",
         "text":"This is where the full and complete text of the original tweet is.............",
         "source":"web",
         "truncated":false,"
         ...
         }
   }

   Busy for now but will look at whether this can be fixed...

   I am having this exact same problem. All of the tweets that I want to publish on wordpress are retweets. All of the long tweets are rendered unusable because the posts are truncated. Has a solution been found?
