 * Hello!
 * I was wondering if it’s possible to limit the characters that show on the post
   title. Rather than having multiple lines, to have something like “Long Post Titl…”

 * Currently not. Such an option is possible: To enter the maximum number of letters
   for post titles. Or maximum number of words. Are there any wishes for that?

 * Possibly, what would happen if you have more than the maximum? Would there be
   an ellipses like this: “…”

 * With the new version 4.5 you can shorten the post title by the maximum number
   of characters. The shorten title is extended with ellipses automatically.
 * If you like that and the plugin I would be glad about a review by you.
