 * Hello, I’ve noticed that when adding facebook links in order to avoid redirector(
   by replacing href=” in the $desc_feed, the function does not take into account
   HTTPS links, so it would end up with broken links as e.g. _[http://www.facebook.comhttps://www.facebook.com/&#8230](http://www.facebook.comhttps://www.facebook.com/&#8230);._
 * I tried to add another replacement at line 233:
    `$desc_feed = str_replace('href
   ="https://www.facebook.com', 'href="', $desc_feed);`
 * Now it works as expected, however I’m still a bit concerned about absolute links
   not pointing to FB…

 * Hello.
 * I have installed the plugin and all worked except that links in the description
   are broken because they have the facebook url added to the front. I tried some
   of the fixes found in various support streams on here but none worked. They all
   seem to stop the description from showing at all.
 * Please can you help? As otherwise the plugin is great.
 * Thanks
 * Tamsin
