									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href='http://kingdompen.org/members/sarah-h/' rel="nofollow ugc">@Sarah-h</a> Yeah, Daeus explained it very well there. I like to think about plugins as apps. You can get &#8216;apps&#8217; for WordPress just like you get apps for a cell phone. The WordPress &#8220;apps&#8221; make your website do something that it isn&#8217;t already programmed for &#8230;just like a cell phone app. </p>
