Very specific bug uncovered

This isn't a true Platform problem--it's an issue with a plugin I'm using, and I'm not really posting this to get help. I just wanted to share. My company has a couple different blogs on separate URLs that they wanted pulled into our main site, so we'd have excerpts from these blogs with links off of our site back to them. To do this I'm using wp-o-matic, which is a kind of spammy autoblogging plugin (I'm not using it for spam purposes, just to make my life easier though). The plugin pulls posts into your WP account automatically and republishes them. And it has a setting to make the Post Titles link back to the original source. This worked fine in PlatformPro 1.1.5, but in Platform 1.2.3 blocks the post titles from linking back. Here's an example of what the code looks like when using wp-o-matic with Pro 1.1.5: `Dealing with Negative Online Sentiment – Mashable Recap` With 1.2.3, the link just looks like any other link to a post without all that other stuff. I've marked this as not a support question because with spammy auto-blogging plugins...you kind of get what you pay for (nothing). Just thought it might be worth sharing!

Interesting. Let us know if there something we need to change or think about

Thanks! I think I'll just have to try to figure out a different way to pull in these blog posts. I've already blocked robots from crawling the posts, but I don't want people to be able to click them on the website and read them there. A this point I'll have to stick with 1.1.5 I think unless there's a way for me to tweak the later Platform versions to allow for this plugin to direct people offsite. Not sure how complex that would be though. *Edit: It's interesting though, because the "continue reading" link works the same in both versions of PP--directs people offsite to the original content on the blogs.

Update: In case anybody searches and finds this thread, I've found a blog syndication plugin that plays nice with the latest (1.2.3) version of PlatformPro: FeedWordPress (http://feedwordpress.radgeek.com/) works great so far, including allowing the post title to link back to the original source.
