    Hi Gene,

    You can use the excerpt attribute to pull in a specific number of words, here’s an example of how to pull in the first 50 words:

    [wp_rss_retriever url="http://travistaylor.com/feed/" items="10" excerpt="50"]

    The current version does not allow for thumbnails to be pulled in.

    Hi Travis, thanks for the reply. I need to include the thumbnail image so I ended up using a PHP function to truncate the full text.

    Is there a way to not include the excerpt at all?

    Not currently, however I’ve added this to the version 1.1 list 🙂

    Hello,

    I apologize for the extreme delay.

    I have just released version 1.1.1 which gives you ability to display the thumbnail. Simply set thumbnail=”true” in the shortcode attributes. Additionally you can set thumbnail=”200″ or any size you want to resize the thumbnail.

    For example:
    [wp_rss_retriever url="http://feeds.feedburner.com/TechCrunch/" items="10" thumbnail="200"]

    Also, to remove the excerpt set excerpt=”none”.

    Thank you for your feedback!
    – Travis
