Hello,
The content is stripped only if you have enabled Single Message option, because that way the text is sent as the caption to the featured image and Telegram has a limit of 1024 characters for image caption.
If you wish to send the whole content, you may disable Single Message option. Also, there is a limit of 4096 characters for a text message. If a text message crosses that limit, it will be split and sent in parts to make sure it’s not rejected by Telegram.

Hello,
Thanks for the quick reply. So when strips the content and adds “…” at the end, is there a way to also have it insert a “Read More” link? Otherwise I have to have the read more link in the template even if the content was not shortened.
Adding a Read More link with full control will require little bit of custom code.
Here are a few options to solve this issue without custom code:
Solution 1
- Use
{post_excerpt}
- Set Excerpt Length to less than 100
- Set Formatting to Markdown
- Add this to Message Template after
{post_excerpt}: [Read More]({full_url})
Solution 2
- With Single Message enabled
- Set Image Position to After the text
- Use
{post_excerpt} as mentioned in Solution 1
Solution 3
- Disable Single Message
- Use
{post_content}
