 This plugin accepts the following configuration options:
 
 - `descriptionLength`: the maximum length of the generated description. Default is 150 characters. The cut off happens after the first _sentence_ that ends after the given length.
+- `replaceExternalLinks`: If `true` (default), replace external links with their domain and path in the description (e.g. `https://domain.tld/some_page/another_page?query=hello&target=world` is replaced with `domain.tld/some_page/another_page`).
