Hide some words

In my blog I have some rubrics which names I add to the article titles. Example:

“Photo of the week: blah-blah” where “photo of the week” is a week rubric and “blah-blah” is a particular title. The rubric name is a part of the title field, it isn’t a separate field, because I want it to be included in the RSS titles as well.

However, in lists of related articles I want to skip this part of the title, because all articles in such kind of lists are from the same rubric (rubrics are categories as well):

Instead of:

“More photos of the week:

• Photo of the week: Blah-blah
• Photo of the week: Nah-nah
• Photo of the week: Foo-foo”

… I want:

“More photos of the week:

• Blah-blah
• Nah-nah
• Foo-foo”

So, how can skip “Photo of the week” here?

For example, I could use a custom field for the short title, but how can I use that custom field in the related articles list?
Or, is it possible to hide the words “photo of the week” somehow automatically?

Re: Hide some words

Drop this into your article form:

<txp:php>
echo str_replace('Photo of the week: ', '', $GLOBALS['thisarticle']['title']);
</txp:php>

Re: Hide some words

adi_title would be able to do this for you.

Re: Hide some words

Thank you both jm and gomedia.

Both solutions are useful but… I want to use these changed titles for Related Artcicles list.

However the <txp:related_articles /> tag doesn’t support a form attribute, so I can’t specify which adi_title version to use, as well as I can’t apply the php code there.

The <txp:related_articles /> tag always use the default title.

Any suggestions?

Re: Hide some words

Maybe chh_related_articles in conjunction with adi_title?

Re: Hide some words

Or we take Jon-Michaels example and tweak it a little bit. For example:

<txp:php>
	echo
		str_replace('Photo of the week: ','',
			parse(
				'<txp:related_articles />'
			)
		)
	;
</txp:php>

Re: Hide some words

Thank you guys!

The Gocom/jm php code works :) So I won’t install chh_related_articles at this moment.

I will use adi_title for other types of lists.

Thanks.

Re: Hide some words

Nice work, Gocom.

nikolay, related_articles accepts a form attr (or $thing), so you can do:

<txp:related_articles>
    <txp:title/>
</txp:related_articles>

Yeah, current versions do… thanks for reminding :D But anyway that tweaking makes it faster by x times, where x is the amount of related articles.
