I’ve recently noticed that a ‘Read full post’ button has appeared in Discourse topics linked to Wordpress articles. Is it possible to have this as an option that can be turned off? 2 reasons for this request: I use Visual Composer in Wordpress to build some posts so they don’t always appear corr…

Hey there @cosdesign , have you tried the solution suggested above? Namely Make sure “Use Full Post Content” is not checked in the WP Discourse publishing settings. Make sure “embed truncate” is not checked in Discourse site settings. This will mean that: WP Discourse will just send excerpts to …

[이미지] jamesmarkcook: Is it possible to have this as an option that can be turned off? Yes, I think there should be an option to disable this behaviour on the WordPress end, without having to unselect the ‘embed truncate’ setting on Discourse. If the plugin doesn’t send the embed_url to Disco…

We should improve the help copy (the setting description text) here if we can.
