Post format request

    I love this plugin, it’s working great after the twitter fix.

    Would it be possible to have post title & excerpt as an option as the share content?

    I find that the other options don’t work as well, like post title and content should work but it needs the … straight after it, but adding it to the additional text field leaves a space before the …

    So I guess my request is either allow post title & excerpt as an option or allow an ellipsis straight after the content, because it looks weird when it just cuts the content off and doesn’t have one.

    Thank you!

    Hello @purplecodes

    Here is the Share Content field: https://pasteboard.co/dM7M11VAPZ1f.jpg

    I used the Post Title & Content option and the content cuts off at the character limit, which is correct, but it looks strange as it cuts off in the middle of a band name here:

    So I have two solutions, The first one would be if you enabled people to use Post Title & Excerpt for the Share Content, as my blog excerpts have an ellipsis (…) after them so the tweets would look better, they would have the ellipsis at the end…

    The second solution is using the Additional Text field: https://pasteboard.co/T0t0siZbdb2S.jpg

    I could add the ellipsis … to this field so that it comes after the content, and I tried that and it looks like this:

    I would like there to be no space between the end of the content and the three dots. So could the Additional Text field have an option to add the Additional Text without a space before it?

    Another option would be to have a tick box after the Share Content field to insert the ellipsis … after the share content.

    Thanks

    Hi @mj33777,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    You can add the ellipsis in the Additional Text field for now but the space before the text content in the Additional Text field is the expected behavior for this setting. I don’t think it looks weird with the space before it. Some users put hashtags in this field, so space is needed in that area.
