   Okay this took me an ungodly amount of time to debug. I hope it can help some of you. Adsense fails to load when running Headspace 2 using the %%excerpt%% tag.

   The bug lies here:

   headspace2/models/inline_tags.php
   Line #207
   $excerpt = apply_filters ('the_content', substr ($post->post_content, 0, 1000));

   Changed it to:
   $excerpt = substr ($post->post_content, 0, 1000);

   I don't know the benefits of using apply_filters but the above code will result in AIO working and headspace2 still creating the necessary meta description tag.

   I see apply_filters used quite a bit so why it errors out here is beyond me. Reading up on apply_filters I guess it's supposed to run the filter after all hooks have completed.

   However, AIO was receiving null from 'the_content' hook thus substr would not work for the adsense ads. Whew!

   Forgot to add

   1. Setting the priority didn't work for add_filter
   2. I run another plugin I created myself that uses the 'the_content' filter and everything runs fine. It receives data.
   3. I have been able to reproduce this problem on two seperate blogs that I run
