Titles or Not by john john (John's World Wide Wall Display)

Since joining micro.blog I’ve been messing around with my blog and its RSS on and off. I had settled on removing the titles for status post RSS feed. This means short status posts (<280 characters) were passed over to micro.blog and displayed the whole content there. Longer posts are truncated and linked. Unfortunately this meant that microblog looks quite ugly sometimes, especially when it posts a truncated indieWeb reaction that includes a quote. So I’ve changed how it works a little to only remove titles from the RSS id there are <280 characters. This is a status post, so hopefully it will show up on Micro.Blog as a linked title. Details in this gist: functions that have do with micro.blog and microblogging that live in my child theme’s functions.php Before and after display of a post in micro.blog   Like this:Like Loading...

@johnjohnstonThis is great..Get this out of just your child theme. Please file a PR with @pfefferle and just get this in the function. While you are at it can you fix the bookmark and the quote rss feeds. The changes you make in these feeds will hopefully work for all three themes.

    Hi Greg, thanks. I don’t know if it would really help, this is designed to work with my blog the way I’ve got it organised. A mix of Post Formats, Categories and Post kinds. Would at least need some UI and thinking around it. Whis is probably beyond my baby steps WordPress. What is the problem with the bookmark feed? Mine looks ok to me (I just checked in firefox).
