Now I have to extract only job location such as ex. "Business Analyst – Financial Job at Yoh – NY new york" from the title and make updated in the location field column. every time I have to edit post and cut paste job location such as "NY new york" in location column manually.

I tried trimming the title it works but how can I just extract job address text from title and auto update that in location column. I want this process automated,

please help here

waiting…

Thanks

As per your observation I changed the code so it's formatted correctly (and can be copied without error), thanks for pointing out the issue. I still need to fix up some of my other posts, but this one should be fine.

That part is probably what's causing the issue. Sorry for the formatting, the plugin I was using for displaying PHP code was causing my formatting to disappear. Try to copy it from above again and it should work for you.

this is the code I copied from above:

// Title Trimmer (Version 3)
// Sam Morris – 12.28.2009
// http://www.smor.tv
function title_trimmer($title , $maxLength){
$titleLength = strlen($title);
// get the amount of characters in the title
// start conditional
if ($titleLength > $maxLength) {
// if the title length is over the max length, then we start the trimming process.
$trimmedTitle = substr_replace($title,"",$maxLength); echo $trimmedTitle;
//
echo $trimmedTitle . "…";
//use this instead of the line above if you prefer having a … after your trimmed titles.
} else {
echo $title; }}

this is the code in my page:

<?php title_trimmer(get_the_title() , 40); ?>

What am I doing wrong??

great function

It depends on what you're trying to do, but sometimes I need to create a widget to preform some type of standard functionality (like displaying recent posts), but don't want the titles wrapping to a 2nd line. I typically use the My Custom Widgets plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mycustomwidge…) and create a widget that contains a WordPress loop. Then I can grab the posts I want and have the ability to wrap the title tags in the title trimmer function. The end result would be a loop going through my recent posts with trimmed down titles.
