well Steve, if you are making the post to automatically post on twitter then the title is taken from wordpress database, for a solution of yours I think plugin could be made.

Hey guys,
I’ve been struggling with a similar issue for a day or two, how to limit the length of a post title in wordpress..? Well I’ve got as far as it will limit what is displayed on the screen, but the problem is it is not updating or changing the original length of the title. Whilst this is not such a problem on my site, it becomes a mojor problem if I submit a post to Twitter for example.

Does anyone know how to get the_title in wordpress to update to the truncated version of the title that gets displayed on the screen..?

Thanks Steve

hi,
how can I make the title to appear shorter only in the post (for example 10 letters), but in the head to remain the same ?!

Hi,Thanks for the nice post!
I am having some problems related to title..
how to put image or photo after or before title post in wordpress blog.
I have a few articles on my home page and I would like to make the post articles clickable. Right now my post titles are not clickable. I am using WordPress for my site.
I want to name the page title (Page Title) different from the Post Title. If I name the page title something really optimized but the post title something short and sweet would this make my site less SEO optimized then naming the post title the same as the page title?
Please do reply!
