Portal Announcements are great but they show all the post content; if you want to trim down the size of the portal announcements then this plugin will set a limit on the number of characters shown in an announcement. The plugin adds an ellipse at the end of the shown text and a read more link.
Features
The announcement cuts off at a full word, not half way through
The read more link is stylable as a button or as a link after the ellipses
If the announcement is shorter than the limit then no read more link is displayed.
Known Issues
The plugin will display malformed BB code if the end tag is outside the range of the cut off.
Where to find the settings?
The settings are incorporated into the portal settings in the Portal settings in your ACP.
