 * Crosspost creates excerpts by default when a post is made from my development
   platform to wordpress.com. This duplicates the initial portion of the post and
   is not the desired format. The original post does have an excerpt and neither
   do the original posts on wordpress.com. It only happens with crosspost. Is there
   a way to disable it in the plugin?
