 * Where can I adjust the Twitter string length because it is shortened a lot since
   the last update. I don’t see a reason to shorten it from inside the system unless
   for the max string length accepted by Twitter.

 * Hello Pascal,
    There is no such issue, twitter character length is doubled by
   twitter recently. In the plugin’s settings page an option added for this,labelled
   as **Twitter character limit** ,which is assigned a default value of 280. This
   value will be set to 140,if entered value is less than 140. Hope it helps. If
   any issues ,please let us know

 * So I am the only one where only 85 chars are published on Twitter?
    I have something
   like : Titel – url #tag1 #tag2
 * In Twitter now it is 85 chars of the title followed by “…”

 * It does this:
    Title…
 * instead of:
    Title – url #tag1 #tag2 (“…” when needed)
 * Image is posted like it should.
 * Hope this helps?

 * Could you please recheck the value of **Twitter character limit**, that is a 
   new configuration added to the settings page with a default value of 280.Please
   make sure the value is set to 280.
    If issue persist please contact [support desk](https://xyzscripts.com/support/).
   Thank you

 * It is not the length, it is a bug. Only the title is published followed by 3 
   dots.
    If you would read what I wrote…
 * I have overwritten the files with files from a fresh download of the plugin. 
   Still the same. Check it yourself and you will see.

 * Hello Pascal,
 * The twitter character limit of tweets is 280 but languages like Chinese, Japanese
   and Korean won’t get the 280 character length limit.That’s why a new configuration
   added to the plugin with default value of 280,so that those who uses Chinese,
   Japanese and Korean could configure it from the settings page and set it to 140.
   There is no other changes!
    We do test every new feature added to the plugins.
   If you set the Twitter character limit as 280 then it will work properly. I did
   tested it with image upload and message like Title – url #tag1 #tag2 . Please
   contact the [support desk](https://xyzscripts.com/support/) if issue persist .
   Thank you for your patience.
