 * Hello,
    It seems strange that this plugin does not respect the “more” post divider
   when posting to Facebook.
 * Instead of stopping the post text at the divider point, this plugin puts the 
   divider into the Facebook post (it appears as a large gap) and continues to place
   the post text after the divider.
 * Is there any way I can get this plugin to see and use the “more” divider?

 * Facebook doesn’t support this. Facebook only supports plain texts, so the plugin
   strips all markup.

 * Why can’t the plugin strip all text after the divider before posting over to 
   FB?

 * So – why can’t it be an option? I ask because of this:
 * Not working like you think it should defeats another feature – the ability to
   choose whether or not to post a youtube video to facebook. The “don’t post video
   to FB” option is great because it makes sense because people would naturally 
   check that box in order to drive traffic back to their blog to watch the video.
 * Example post:
    Type in intro sentence, place the “more” divider, embed the video
   below, and post more text under the video.
 * Facebook grabs all of this including the video link and posts to facebook. Users
   then see a perfectly-formed youtube link and can go right there, skipping the
   blog post completely. The only way to get around this issue is to make a lot 
   of intro text so that the character count cuts it off.

 * This plugin exists for over three years and nobody asked for this feature ever
   before, so IMHO this is not a feature that is worth the effort to implement.

 * If you want, you can contribute this feature. Just send me a diff file of the
   changes after you have tested the change thoroughly and I will apply the changes
   to the next version.
