Manipulate title and content

    It would be great if we could manipulate the title and content.

    Right now the title says: “Admin posted: blabla…”

    I would like to be able to customize it.

    I would like to remove “-userName- posted an update:” and leave only “blabla…”
    I would add “-groupName- activity:” or something similar instead “userName posted:”

    Also I think there should be an option for selecting how many characters to use in title and add “…” after…

    The content should be also manipulated in similar way… At the moment I prefer using whole post as the content…

    Any ideas?

    Cheers!

    Can you please send me a link to your RSS? The title prefix should not be there and is not added by this plugin. Fact is, that I only modifing existing RSS feed and not creating it from scratch, so if another plugin or theme modifies it, it will persist.

    Anyway, this may be changed via WordPress filters – I will post you details and code later today.

    Hello again,
    there is WordPress filter called “the_title_rss” that can be used to modify title in RSS. Probably your template or another plugin is hooked to this filter and is changing your title.

    It’s not easy to track it down, but you can use GD Press tools (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/gd-press-tools/) to find the function hooked to this filter and remove it in your function.php via remove_filter function (https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/remove_filter).
    If you can track down the plugin / template function that is hooked to “the_title_rss” filter, you can just remove it in code.

    Or you can just hook your own function (as last) and just filter out “problematic” text.
