FeedWordPress Duplicate Post Filter

A FeedWordPress syndicated post filter that checks for duplicates before posting items from your feeds.

1.5 - Remove HTML tags before computing hash.

1.4 - Overhauled strategy for duplicate detection. This works better than previous strategies.

1.3 - Fixed a dumb typo. Rewrote the DB query using better wpdb methods (prepare and query). Changed from htmlescape2 to esc_html WP function.

1.2 - Escaping the single quote (') character sometimes gives a conversion of ’ instead of ’ This caused a false negative and duplicate posts would be stored. Consider this release a temporary hack until I write a proper regex based title escape function.

1.1 - Characters in post-titles like '&' were not getting converted to HTML entities. This caused the post title comparison to register a false negative. (So duplicate posts would be added to your feed.)
