Hi there! Love this plugin, works like a charm! Too bad my php skills are close to zero. I really would like to see a “Title length (characters)” just like the post excerpt length. Reason: The plugin messes with my layout when a post has a title that is too long for 1 line. If somebody knows how to create this by editting the php file, please share! I can realy use it 🙂 thanks in advance! https://wordpress.org/plugins/tw-recent-posts-widget/ Replace ‘ the_title(); ‘ to ‘ echo substr(the_title($before = ”, $after = ”,FALSE),0,50); ‘ in tw-recent-posts-widget.php file… With some trying i noticed the last number (50) can be changed into another number to make the showed title longer or shorter. So thanks a lot, it works! Would be beautiful if there would appear some dots at the end of a title that has been shortened (like what happenes with the exerpt aswel). Is this hard to realise?
