   I have noticed so far that while the page or post title is correctly posted using the Facebook or Twitter functions (from dropdown toolbox or service buttons), using Favorites or the Email function results in titles with +s instead of spaces, %3A for colons, etc

   In other words:
   April 30: Open House at the Center
   -becomes-
   April+30%3A+Open+House+at+the+Center

   I have tested it in on the homepage, a single post and page page. Using the email function, the Title is botched in the subject line by default; I created a new email template with the Title in the body and the same problem applies.

   Additionally, I have noticed then when placing the function in my theme template (Atahualpa 3.4.6) --so that I may have AddThis at the top of each page + post in addition to the bottom-- that the title + url are no longer correctly included; instead the home page title + url are used.

   This post in the AddThis support forum contains the fix -- requires editing the plugin:

   My other problem with the url + title not working from the AddThis instance added to my template may be a problem specific to Atahualpa -- I'll experiment with another theme to find out.

   Both issues are resolved in our development branch:

   The bug is fixed, and the template tag supports url/title overrides (see http://www.addthis.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=24428 for details).

   Best,
   Matt
