# Plugin text shown in the_excerpt() and pingbacks/trackbacks

 * Hi everyone!
 * I have the following problem:
 * In the search results and the archives [that is: in every post that is using 
   [the_excerpt()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_excerpt)], if the
   post is short, there is text shown at the end that is actually being provided
   by plugins and does not belong to the original post content. It’s the same with
   pingbacks/trackbacks if the referring link is at the end of the post content.
 * I am using the following plugins that “hook” into the wordpress loop (see Blog
   Info on my site) and create this odd behavior:
 * Popularity Contest
    Social Bookmarks Ultimate Tag Warrior
 * Does anyone else has this problem and know how to fix it?
    Thanks in advance!

 * Hmm… I just thought:
    if I manually inserted the template tags provided by the
   plugins after the_content() call rather than let them “hook” into the loop, would
   that resolve the problem?

 * Problem solved.
 * As expected, it was the plugins hooking into the loop.
 * Manually inserting the template tags for each plugin after the_content() in the
   main index template did the trick.
