CAA resolved

Hi Farhad, On our RSS feed, we have set it to include 5000 words but it still truncates the RSS item description after 55 words no matter what the setting is? Thanks in advance for your help! Can you please provide the URL? I doubt that RSS feed is already truncating the words before this plugin receive the feeds. Thank you – here it is: https://antisemitism.uk/act/volunteer/#roles The RSS feed is here: https://antisemitism.uk/category/channels/volunteer-roles/feed/ In WordPress settings it says to show full text in each feed, not just a summary. I have checked your feed, it’s containing a description tag and another paragraph tag. You are maybe expecting that “<p>” tag but RSS plugin is reading the instructed one. Please check the screenshot, your feed is having that close brackets after a length of words. https://prnt.sc/p4v4s7 Thank you Fahad. Would it be possible to get the plugin to read the full item text instead of the excerpt? This reply was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by CAA . Reason: Corrected autocorrect error! Yes, it is possible in new version 2.7.5 just released today. Please test it and confirm if its working as expected? Thank you Fahad, it’s perfect! 🙂
