If you refer to the post title you need to hook your function to the_title filter like explained in the codex. add_filter(‘the_title’, ‘my_custom_title’, 10, 2); If you refer to the HTML meta in your page then you need to hook your function to document_title_parts filter explained here. add_filter(‘document_title_parts’, ‘my_custom_title’, 10, 2); The two filters work … Read more
single_post_title() and get_the_title() work completely differently. get_the_title() (or the_title(), which works the same) will get the title for the current post in the loop: <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); the_title(); endwhile; endif; ?> So it’s the function to use to get the post title for each post in … Read more
There’s a few ways to do this, but I would argue that the preferred way is, in general, fetching the post_title attribute from the post object. This does not depend on removing all filters for a certain function and adding them back later — the latter requires you to directly access the global $wp_filter. get_post … Read more
The function the_title() is just a wrapper around the function get_the_title(). It’s understandably confusing that the filter the_title actually exists inside get_the_title(). So, whatever the function you’re using to actually display it, it doesn’t matter, you can filter its content by hooking into the_title
To set the title before it is saved, hook into wp_insert_post_data: add_filter( ‘wp_insert_post_data’, ‘wpse_75597_change_title’ ); function wpse_75597_change_title( $post_data ) { $post_data[‘post_title’] = ‘SOMETHING VERY LOUD’; return $post_data; }
Based on the comment exchange, here’s what I think you’re after: <h1><?php echo get_the_title( $post->post_parent ? $post->post_parent : $post->ID ) ?></h1> <?php if ( $list = wp_list_pages( “echo=0&child_of=$post->ID” ) ) : ?> <h2>Select a sub-page</h2> <ul> <?php echo $list ?> </ul> <?php elseif ( $post->parent ) : ?> <h2><?php the_title() ?></h2> <?php endif ?>
Assuming that you’ve enabled support for both post thumbnails and post tags for static Pages, I would use WP_Query() to build your query, and do something like the following: global $post; $child_pages_query_args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘page’, ‘post_parent’ => $post->ID, ‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’ ); $child_pages = new WP_Query( $child_pages_query_args ); if ( $child_pages->have_posts() ) : … Read more
<?php function add_subtitle($title, $id) { $subtitle = get_post_meta($id, ‘myCustomField’, true); $new_title = $title; if(!empty($subtitle)) $new_title = $subtitle . ‘: ‘ . $new_title; return $new_title; } add_filter(‘the_title’, ‘add_subtitle’, 10, 2); Basically, this uses the the_title filter to add the subtitle to your title. It only adds it if that custom field is available, otherwise, it leaves … Read more
hey just look in code and it also support fourth parameter post global $post; the_title_attribute(array(‘post’=>$post));//post object or global $post; the_title_attribute(array(‘post’=>$post->ID));//post id so you can use it like <a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/111931/<?php echo get_permalink($id); ?>” title=”<?php the_title_attribute(array(‘post’=>$id)); ?>”> //where $id is post id Important Link the_title_attribute
The simplest method may be to just save titles as last name / first name, then they will naturally sort. You can then reverse the title when you output it in the template. Your attempt to modify the orderby query var is fundamentally flawed. Order is created by MySQL, which doesn’t understand PHP, and can’t … Read more
