Original ticket http://trac.elgg.org/ticket/1919 on 40164911-11-17 by trac user mhourahine, assigned to unknown.

Elgg version: 1.7

Although good for Twitter integration, the 140 character limit is very restrictive, especially given the absence of a URL shortener for internal Elgg links.

If interested, attached is a patch that adds an option to turn of the 140 character limit.

I'm in favor of seeing this made a configurable option at least. The twitter push plugin should be responsible for ensuring that only 140 characters get through.

I agree this should be configurable, but it already should be via the plugin API. I just left a [http://community.elgg.org/discussion/view/1081268/wire-characters-limits-problem#item-annotation-4634103 comment] with instructions that any Elgg dev should be able to follow in a few minutes. I might've missed something though.
