 * Hi i am having some problems with validating my site, because of CFF. It is related
   to the images. But how can I solve this? 🙂
 *     ```
       Error Line 505, Column 1456: & did not start a character reference. (& probably should have been escaped as &.)
       …m/964030763641394/picture?type=normal&width=9999&height=9999" border="0" alt="…
       ```

       Line 505, Column 1467: & did not start a character reference. (& probably should have been escaped as &.)

       ```
   
 *     ```
       Error Line 505, Column 3155: & did not start a character reference. (& probably should have been escaped as &.)
       …m/963981670312970/picture?type=normal&width=9999&height=9999" border="0" alt="…
       ```
   
 *     ```
       Error Line 505, Column 3166: & did not start a character reference. (& probably should have been escaped as &.)
       …312970/picture?type=normal&width=9999&height=9999" border="0" alt="Vis på face…
       ```
   
 * If I enable “Show “Share” link” – It will give me even more errors. But first
   of all the four issues above is most important.

 * Hey Peter,
 * Are you using the latest version of the plugin? If not, could you update to the
   latest version (2.5.5) and let me know whether it solves the problem for you?

 * You’re welcome Peter. Your support request was good timing as we only pushed 
   out the 2.5.5 update with this fix a couple of days ago.
 * Let me know if you have any other issues, and have a great weekend!
