You’ll want to make sure that under Settings > Reading, that “For each article in a feed, show” is set to “Full text” rather than “Summary”. If you are using MailChimp for RSS emails, make sure you are using the merge tag for the full text feed, rather than the excerpt, as the excerpt is still included in the full text feed.
Yes it’s set to full text.
Is there a way I can increase the setting of 200 words in the excerpt to 5000?
happy to change code if you can point me in the right direction.
I don’t think I understand what you’re trying to do–this seems to me like it would basically ensure that the excerpt contains the full post?
However, if you want to fork the plugin and override the maximum excerpt length, you can do so by modifying the code for the settings page (line 217 of class-sendimagesrss-settings.php). Just be aware that unless you change the plugin name, WordPress will overwrite your copy next time I push an update here.
Perfect thank you. Worked a treat.
I’ll look at renaming plugin to stop it being overwritten.
