Hi guys,
I have a neat website with the body (content) of the page in a narrow (about 500px) area. The problem is that some feeds offer news URLs that are at length (with some large random identifier).
I have an image attached so you can see the result.
What I have done to fix the problem, at this time, is copy the aggregator source template PHP file and fix the print $source_url; to make sure that over a certain size the URL is cut. (like with the _filter_trim() function)
What I think would be neat is to add a way to define the maximum length (like with the URL filters) and give the aggregator source template another variable called $caption that we could use as the URL caption.
<?php
<div class="feed-url">
<em>??php print t('URL:'); ??</em> <a href="??php print $source_url; ??">
??php
if (strlen($source_url) > 55) {
echo substr($source_url, 0, 55), "...";
}
else {
print $source_url;
}
??
</a>
</div>
?>And if the module was to offer a $caption, the condition would simply become print $caption.
Thank you.
