How to extract the body of an article in post-textile rendered HTML?

I found the txp_twitter extension by Fran Garcia and I figured out how to edit it to spit my article body into twitter (I write short posts) but my article body is marked up using textile and I can’t figure out how to show the rendered HTML version to Twitter.

If your edit was changing custom_1 into Body, try Body_html instead.

Well, Body_html is better in that it allows me to dump the rendered HTML Body into twitter. But Twitter displays it as <p><a href=”{url}”>Link Copy</a></p>” instead of as “Link Copy” (linked to the {URL}).

@mescobosa What about using rss_auto_excerpt with striptags=“1” ? Is that combination possible with txp_twitter?

I am not sure… good thought! Is it possible to reference the output of an extension in the edited code of another extension?
