  Hi there,

  Are you referring to the Publicize Custom Message?

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#using-publicize

  If so, when you include a image in your post, attached images in a Tweet occupy an additional 23 characters of the available tweet message. The “characters remaining” numbers in the sharing options does not take into account the extra image link. That is why it sometimes truncates the Twitter messages and other times it is fine – you’re unknowingly going over the character limit whenever the message is cut off.

  This is actually a longstanding issue have an open report for, but hopefully this is something that will help you as you construct your custom messages moving forward.

  Thanks,
