One problem I noticed is that I was getting the outbound click tracking code generated into my RSS feed. This caused warnings from the RSS feed validator.This may have been an interaction with another plugin. In any case I was able to work around this problem by modifying the plugin to check if it is being called when processing a feed.I added checks for "is_feed()" at the statr of the functions "the_content", "comment_text", "comment_author_link" and "bookmarks". In each case if we are processing a feed then the buffer is returned unchanged.Regards,Andrew. Hi Joost,

That will ONLY use the new code though, no point in allowing you to choose in my opinion :P Working on that at the moment yes, expect an update in 2-3 days.

I haven't check for any updates, so I'm sorry if this has been corrected.Works good though, but maybe too good.

I had the same question on the placement of the Analytics code in the header of the HTML code as opposed to the bottom. Glad to see there is a good reason you chose that route.

Other trackers place this code at the end so it won't slow down the loading of the page.Also, I prefer the plugin options to be in under the options tab and not under the plugins tab, but this is just a matter of personal taste :) Nice plugin but I do not like the fact that the JavaScript is placed on top of the page in the source code.

It's a minor thing to worry about, but it tripped me up when I dropped the main folder in my plugins. Thanks, and testing it out now.
