I've been working with the RSS feed options in vBulletin 4.25. Threads are being created in the forums I want them to, using the feed link URLs I've set up. Images display properly, a little large though.

Does anyone know why special characters are appearing in certain text portions? (Example below.) Can someone point me to a better method of setting up RSS feeds. (A mod or plug-in?)

One example: View Entire Post &rsaquo;

Another: & - #60; &- #160; &- #160 (Dashes added for display.)

Link to thread: ultribal

I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any insight.

It has to do with your AddThis code.

Wow. I hadn't considered that. I'll turn it off and see what happens. Thanks In Omnibus!

In Omnibus, if you see this, can you tell me why AddThis was affecting the display of RSS posts?

I've removed the code, and then reset and/or ran the scheduled task for the feeds again, but so far the same thing is occurring. Give it some time?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
