    Some posts have a long title which makes the list of recent comments longer. Is it possible to truncate the post title in recent comments?

  • Hi Mubashirqasim, thanks for using our addon.

    At the moment the plugin takes the full title of the post which is rendered as part of the whole output including the rest of the comment information.

    I will definitely have a deeper look at your suggestion and check if we can add an option for setting the length of the post title to a user-specific value. Thanks for your recommendation.

    Kind regards,
    George

    Hi,

    You can easily trim titles using an approach based on CSS.

    This question has a solution that you could use: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24632423/trim-a-string-using-css

    Although the plugin already provides options to reduce what is shown in excerpts, I don’t think that a similar option should be provided for titles. In the case of excerpts, the options are more justified because the full content of a comment is not necessarily part of what should be included in an excerpt (obviously, thus the notion of “excerpt”) but in the case of titles it’s a purely representational concept which CSS takes care of appropriately.

    Cheers
