[thumb:358:l:s=1:l=x]In an effort to give back to the WordPressµ community, Thunder Lounge is pleased to announce our Default Post Title plugin for WordPressµ as available.

First, our normal readers are going to scratch their head, as we don’t often discuss WordPress in this NASCAR world. Bear with us. ;)

Description

This plugin is simple, and one of those set and forget items.

This will allow you to set a default post title for posts that are submitted without a post title. Thus saving the headaches of end users that neglect to add a post title.

By users having a blank title, this kills links to posts, links in RSS feeds, recent posts, and a slew of other little items.

Installation & Configuration

This one is pretty darn simple.

Upload the default-post-title.php file to your mu-plugins directory and you’re done. For advanced usage, well as advanced as this simple script gets, read on. Else, feel free to scroll down to the download link below.

If you’re not comfortable with editing a php file, skip this. For those who are fine with that, simply open the default-post-title.php file and look for the user edit area. You’ll see a variable with “Untitled Post”. Simply replace the text inside the quotes with what you would like.

Reporting Bugs & Problems

We have set up an interactive form for the reporting of problems and bugs. Please use this so that we can keep the comment area free of support questions and bug reports. Thanks. ;)

Thanks!
