 * I edited my RSS to include the entire post instead of the excerpt. This is what
   I changed:
 * `<description><![CDATA[<?php the_excerpt_rss() ?>]]></description>`
    to `<description
   ><![CDATA[<?php the_content_rss(); ?> ]]></description>`
 * And now I’m getting the full content but the links are somehow made into footnotes
   and are not clickable.

 * Is there a way I can fix this formatting?

 * What file did you edit? You shouldn’t have to edit anything. Just visit Settings-
   > Reading and check the right option at “For each article in a feed, show “.
 * Looks to me like you must have a plugin splatting affiliate links as footnotes.

 * Hi, thanks for your response.
 * I did check the entire feed under Settings > Reading, so that’s not it.
 * The links on the bottom, are not from a plugin, rather those are links that I
   used within the post. In the RSS feed, these links aren’t clickable. You can 
   see that in the post, where a word should be linked there is a footnote (e.g.[
   1] ) and the link url is placed at the bottom of the entry and is not clickable.(
   It’s clickable in this post on the forum because of auto-formatting)
 * I just can’t figure out how to format the rss to leave the links intact.
