 * The HTML entities in our blog posts are not working correctly when sent to Twitter.
   E.G. instead of an m-dash, our tweets contain the string — Here is a real-world
   example:
 * PowerShell Studio 2015 &_n-dash_; What &_rsquo_; s new?
    (I had to add the underscores
   after the & and before the ; in the above line as this forum correctly translates
   the HTML entities.)
 * Which SHOULD read:
    PowerShell Studio 2015 – What’s new?
 * We are using Social plugin Version 3.0.
 * Is there any fix for this?
