    Hello:

    I just started to use your plugin and have done some preview publishes to my Apple News channel. I have noticed an issue with how the content from a specific plugin renders on the Apple News articles. I use the Universal Star Rating plug-in to display ratings for my reviews and on the preview pages for my articles, the image for the star ratings don’t display properly. It looks like the image source is returned as part of a PHP function call. Something like the text below:

    <img class=​"usr" src=​"http:​/​/​thespiritedgrain.com/​wp-content/​plugins/​universal-star-rating/​includes/​stars.php?​img=01.png&​px=12&​max=5&​rat=4.5" alt=​"4.5 Stars" scale=​"0">​

    I’ve got the Apple News plugin setup to allow remote images, but the image that gets returned from this URL is not the correct (it appears to be some sort of default image) and is not in-line with the text where it should appear.

    I’m just wondering if there’s some way to short circuit the shortcode used in the WordPress body for the Universal Star Ratings when exporting to Apple News and use some alternative (maybe just some text instead of the image)?

    The formatting here seems to be the only sticking point on publishing my articles to Apple News service with your plugin. If you have any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.

    If this plugin isn’t behaving well with Apple News, you’ll have to reach out to that plugin’s developer for support or figure out a way to do it on your own.

    Unfortunately there are thousands of WordPress plugins and it’s just not feasible for us to offer support for any third party plugins that aren’t compatible with Apple News.
