 * Allen,
 * Currently working thru an issue in my theme (I know you have nothing to do with
   that but my issue is coming from the actual data).
 * I asked theme support about the link data being passed thru as I am getting the
   link plus the anchor text. I only want the link so I can use my own text.
 * here is an example…
 * </div>
 * returns
 * <div class=”readMore”>[China growth data lifts Europe shares, oil and metals](http://whiddy.com/ch...oil-and-metals/)”
   rel=”nofollow”>Read More…</div>
 * I want to use php-the_title as the url (without the text) and be able to go directly
   to the external post location.
 * Theme support told me this info is being passed from the rss plugin.
 * Is there a way for just the url to be passed thru?

 * here is what I see from what you posted….if it says
 *     ```
       <?php _e('Read More...','mythemeshop'); ?>
       ```
   
 * that statement is from your theme, not my plugin (I know this because they have
   localization in their oode).

 * Yes even though it didn’t display like I wanted it, the code is entirely from
   the theme.
 * What I am asking is about the data that is being passed thru, not how they are
   later massaging it.
 * It has the external url and the anchor text in the link info.
 * I was wondering if I could just get the external url only. Was thinking that 
   this would be the way it is if it was the shortcode version of this data so you
   could create your own Read More” text.
 * Hope I am making sense…

 * if you are using the autopost, you can go into any post and edit it to see what
   comes in from my plugin – anything else comes from the theme.

 * Ok thanks Allen. Was trying to keep it as automated as possible.
 * I guess that is just 1 more good reason to use the shortcode and let your plugin
   handle all the formatting. LOL
