Allow for custom title trimming #9

Open krafit opened 3 weeks ago

krafit commented 3 weeks ago

For various (SEO) reasons, meetups pre- or postfix their event titles with either the meetup's name, "WP Meetup Dortmund", or with the meetup's name and a counter "104. WP Meetup Stuttgart –".

While it might theoretically be possible to regex our way out of that, it would be way easier to allow meetups to set a custom number of characters to be stripped from the beginning or end of their event titles before they are used as post titles.

This would be problematic whenever this amount changes, e.g. from “1. WP Meetup […]” to “10. WP Meetup […]” to “100. WP Meetup […]” and so on …

agreed, but these changes are not terribly frequent
