# API code doesn't match rss feed code

 * I painstakingly made changes so I could add a URL and title from custom fields
   to the author <address> section.
 * I thought I was all set when I could see my desired code in the rss feed:
    `<
   address><a href="http://www.solo-e.com/experts/ffredrickson/">Fabienne Fredrickson
   </a>Your Client Attraction Mentor, Founder of ClientAttraction.com</address>`
 * However I discovered that Facebook seems to ignore the rss feed in favor of the
   API (which this plugin interfaces with – another discovery). And editing the 
   Production Article shows this code instead:
 * `<address><a href="http://www.solo-e.com/experts/">Fabienne Fredrickson</a></
   address>`
 * This appears to be a bug. A BIG bug. Now I wonder what else isn’t the same…
