The plugin does what it’s supposed to, but as reviewers have written back in 2013, it comes with a weird bug. The bugs they reported appear to be different from the one I got, so I suppose the plugin’s code has changed since then. The fix that CarpetGuy described in his review also doesn’t work for me.
What bug did I get? None when posts are displayed in their own page. However, on the blog’s main page, only the posts’ titles would be displayed, while their content was gone.
Here’s how I fixed it:
The code originally read
if(! is_single())
return;
From what I understand, this tells the function to return nothing, and nothing thus becomes the post’s new content.
Change this to:
if(! is_single())
return $content;
Another change I’ve made:
The plugin automatically puts the line containing the source link in its own paragraph, which is good. However, if the last bit of text from your blog post is not wrapped in paragraph tags (<p> and </p>), then there will be no space between the end of your post and the line with the source link.
I’ve changed that by having the plugin add an empty paragraph before the paragraph containing the line with the source link. This adds space if the end of your blog post was not wrapped in paragraph tags, and adds no further space otherwise.
To do this, find this line of code:
$feedsource = '<p>[<a href="'.$feedlink.'" target="blank" rel="nofollow">source: '.$feedlink.'</a>]</p>';
and change it to:
$feedsource = '<p></p><p>[<a href="'.$feedlink.'" rel="nofollow">source: '.$feedlink.'</a>]</p>';

Adds a link to rss posts but ensures that content on all other pages is hidden. Useless.

I also had the same problem with the broken pages, and here is what I did to fix it.
I have all of my syndicated posts add to a specific category, so, I found the if( is_single())
and changed it to, if( is_single() && in_category(‘whatever category’) ) just replace “whatever category” with the category name, if more than one, separate with a comma. This may be a temporary fix, but it is working for me, so far!

This plugin does exactly what it says… it adds a source link to the bottom of each single blog page item… however it conflicts with my theme and wipes out the content from my non blog pages i.e. about, contact, and so forth… Once I turn it off all of my content returns…
My current theme is Striking – By Kaptinlin – Version 5.1.9.6
My current WP is version 3.5.1
