WP code change help Please.

going out of my realm now can try something like this

in functions.php

PHP Code:

---

function ShortenText($str, $length) {
  $str = strip_tags($str);
  $str = explode(" ", $str);
  return implode(" " , array_slice($str, 0, $length));
} 


---

then change

PHP Code:

---

<?php the_title(); ?>

---

to something like this

PHP Code:

---

<?php echo ShortenText(get_the_title(), 2); ?>

---

a php guru may see a error in this and help kinda worked but not perfect on my test site.

Hi,

Need more info on this.

Where do I paste the code in functions.php

I placed at the bottom and it brought the site to a screeching halt.

Even the admim quit working had to ftp. the backup twice.

got this error when you went to the site.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/sami/domains/freewomensblogs.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/freewomenstheme/functions.php on line 417

should add it to the top of the function.php right after the <?php
