Good plugin favius, thanks.
One questions (I have not tried it), what happens if there is a mycode into the post?
RE: Post Excerpts - faviouz - 2011-08-04
MyCodes will be counted as characters/words and it might break if the character/word limit is in the middle of a MyCode.
I don't think there's an easy solution for this, but I am still looking into it.

this is the same problem as announcements cut-off plugin. if its in the middle of a mycode or html (when allowed) it can break the whole layout.
without parsing the message and tracking the last valid opening mycode or html tag and then trying to find the properly nested closing tag before the cutoff and then backup to the opening tag or expanding to the outer most closing tag, its not really feasible. and it would be a resource killer
RE: Post Excerpts - faviouz - 2011-08-04
Indeed. I don't think there's anything I can do about this.
I can, however, use the strip_tags() function to strip all the HTML code. This would technically fix it, but posts wouldn't have any formatting. I guess a setting could be added to not ruin the layout, at the cost of giving up formatting for post excerpts.

I want to use this plugin for gusts, but also to encourage some usergroup members to be more active and to be promoted to new usergroup to read full post
RE: Post Excerpts - faviouz - 2011-08-05
Yeah, it's supposed to be for guests only, which is the default gid in the "Affected Usergroups" setting. But I just thought I'd add that setting in case someone needs to add other usergroups for whatever reason.
