 * Hi Richard
 * First of all your app is so fantastic – it’s worked like a charm from install
   to setting it up!
 * Is there a way I can limit each feed item to a number of characters so it does
   not show the whole post?, but some sort of “more” button where they could click
   and go see the whole post from facebook (and potentially like our page)?
 * Thanks!
    Lys

 * Hey Lys –
 * Thanks so much for the comments.
 * There is not currently a way to do so, but I can envision a way to implement 
   this feature.
 * Let me chew on this a minute and get back to you; I will probably try and include
   something addressing this request in my next update.
 * Thanks!

 * Hey Lys –
 * I have an update out today that enables an option that I hope gives you what 
   you’re asking for.
 * You can shorten the length of the Message or the Description (so the text post,
   or the text that appears below an Image post, for example). If anything in the
   feed is shortened, a Read More link will be displayed on that item.
 * Anyways, if you see this just let me know if that’s what you’re looking for.
 * Thanks!
    Richard

 * Dear Richard
 * Thank you so much for releasing this update! It was exactly what I was looking
   for!
 * Sorry I haven’t gotten back to you earlier, but I was abroad on business so had
   limited internet.
 * Thanks for the fantastic app!
 * Lys
