**What tweets will be seen by the Twitter search during aggregation?**

Currently it seems Twitter will only return results using http://example.com/?p=:id and the permalink generated by get_permalink($post_id) if the full link is in the Tweet, or if the URL is minified using t.co URLs. Social can not guarantee that Tweets will be aggregated if any other URL shortening service is used.
Twitter converts most short URLs to longer URLs, so searches by the final URL will typically find all of the tweets you want. Social also explicitly searches by the short link for the post (using whatever short link generator or plugin was active when the post was broadcast).

** How do I include Facebook Likes and Twitter Retweets in my comments feed? **

The following code should add "meta" comments such as Likes as Retweets to your comments RSS and Atom feeds:

function social_enable_meta_comments_in_feed() {
$social = Social::instance();
remove_filter('comment_feed_where', array($social, 'comments_feed_exclusions'));
}
add_action('init', 'social_enable_meta_comments_in_feed');

No it does not. If you would like to have these tags on your site, please install one of the many available plugins that add this feature.

Social supports the [Lazy Load plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/lazy-load/). Install this plugin and Social's avatars will hang out on the couch eating potato chips and watching TV until they are needed.
