Thanks Hugh, I look forward to it!

I think Hugh is busy doing some cool stuff:

also, I was able to ugly fix my problem.

I changed Line 288 in wp-content/plugins/seriously-simple-podcasting/templates/feed-podcast.php

From This:
<itunes:subtitle><?php echo $itunes_excerpt; ?></itunes:subtitle>

To This:
<itunes:subtitle><?php echo $subtitle; ?></itunes:subtitle>

Not sure what else this may break. But it worked for my case. For now.

Yeah. Ignore all that jazz I posted. That is only good for the titles. I do not see a way to add_filter to <itunes:subtitle> which is what we are wanting to shorten.

I got some help from a friend using add_filter but I haven’t gotten the complete solutions yet. Also, I don’t like messing with functions if I can help it. Cause I’ll forget what I did and update something and it will break. ??

What I have so far –

add_filter( ‘the_title’, function(){
if( is_feed() && 255 <= strlen( $title ) ) {
$title = substr( $title, 0, 252 ) . ‘…’;
}
return $title;
} );

Any luck with this Colin?

I have been experiencing the same problem.

Just a follow up. I think I concluded this was more of a Canvas -> Magazine Template / Custom Post Type problem than SSP.

I think the step in the right direction was to make a Canvas child theme with includes/theme-action.php and modified the $query from this:

$saved = $wp_query; $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘tag__in’ => $tag_array,’posts_per_page’ => $args[‘posts_per_page’] ) );

to this

$saved = $wp_query; $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘tag__in’ => $tag_array, ‘post_type’ => array(‘post’, ‘podcast’),’posts_per_page’ => $args[‘posts_per_page’] ) )

line 1037

Hope this helps someone heading down the same path.

Thank you,

Brian Dunaway

Upgraded to WooThemes Canvas CANVAS 5.4.1 FRAMEWORK 5.5.5 to be on the safe side.

Still no change. I am guessing this will probably have to do with the post-type -> tag search only being done in Post and not Podcast
