Does anybody know how to truncate the RSS feed of a MyBB forum as per what Wordpress does of only showing an excerpt (e.g. 4 lines) and then have a link saying "read more".

From what I have been able to see the RSS feed for MyBB threads provided the whole first post of a thread, and I would like to instead only show 3 or 4 lines of that first post in my RSS feed.

Thanks Smile

Hey guys, sorry to bump this thread but I raised the question in this thread because I have seen spammers utilize the RSS feed of several MyBB forums and many times without providing a backlink. I could not find any info here nor any plugins to truncate the RSS feed, and I am sure a solution for this would help many people to either prevent RSS theft (copy/paste RSS without backlink) or cut down the stealing fast.

Hope you had a great 24!
