Manipulating the title with a plugin
tilqicom came with a problem. He wanted some specific changes to the title of a post automated. At first I got it wrong, thinking that he wanted some text replacement in the body of a post. That's fairly easy, use the RenderItemAsHtml function in a plugin. When I finished that I heard that he specifically wanted to automatically change some text in the title. We are talking about a change like the input '[date]' to 'Tuesday March 24 2008'.
That caused some serious problems because I hadn't seen it done before.
