    This is something that I will have to research. The ticker displays the content of the Tweet that Twitter supplies through the API, which must not contain the shortened links. So, I’m guessing I would need to figure out how to shorten the links either through another Twitter API call or some other method in addition to grabbing the Tweet content.

    thanks for the response – i do appreciate it! It is odd that the bitly link is not necessarily in the content but a masked link? With more and more people using bitly it would be a great option to add to the plugin. Please let me know if you have any success with this. thanks in advance – lisa
