Hi guys i have searched for almost 3 weeks for questions and it seems i cant find answers i have been reading wordpress codex pages and examples and functions, plugins, almost everything i could find of example to solve my problem but it seems that or this is so easy so people do not address this issue, or is impossible, or not interested in something like this. Wordpress has some standard functions that can be used everywhere (for example the_title() or get_the_title() ) and when i insert that in some plugin, it work perfect, but in theme function.php file i created function trim_title() which basically cut title lenght of title if it's too big. Here is what function do, you can find these instructions on google: // Trim title lenght function trim_title() { $trimed_title = get_the_title(); $limit = "45"; $pad="..."; if(strlen($trimed_title) <= $limit) { echo $trimed_title; } else { $trimed_title = substr($trimed_title, 0, $limit) . $pad; echo $trimed_title; } } And when i insert (replace with the_title() function) this function in my theme index.php or page.php it works great. But when i want to use it in some plugin, plugin wont read it, it shows trimed title but out of <div> and without link, even if it is inside href=" ". This particular problem i found with CurrentlyWatching plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/currentlywatching/ I posted questions for some examples or instructions, for help, on wordpress forum, on plugin website, on other forums, but no one answered. I also strugled with the wp-post-ratings plugin but i didn't have much luck, when i insert the_ratings() function, it shows stars but not ratings, same problems with other plugins when i try to mix them. Is there any possible solutions to insert functions from one plugin to another, instructions,help,documentations, anything that can lead me somewhere.
