How to set the text length of the preview

Hey @der_velli,

Hope you’re well.

Setting letter count is not possible out of the box and it’s not possible to do that easily like one line of CSS. So you need custom coding for that. For the ellipsis after the text you can try this custom CSS;

.bpfb_link_preview_body:after{
    content:"...";
}

You can add custom CSS to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS panel.

Ellipsis is not the problem but the variable text links … ??

Is it possible to show the full text – like after the “read more” click?

Hey @der_velli,

Hope you’re well.

I am afraid, BuddyPress Activity Plus doesn’t have any options for that part, so all these customizations needs custom coding.

There is no way to fix this with only one line of code or editing. Because it can be different possibilities; it can load text from meta description tag if there is, or other social media specific tags, or if there is none it can try to find page content and trim.
