Simple Page Title Character Removal Help Needed Please

[mnybud]

First and foremost I am PHP newbie so excuse the dumb question but I have been struggling with this one for hours and can not find the solution. Can someone show me how I would rewite the following wordpress code for meta tags so that it automatically strips out the character ' from the "single" page titles?

 

Example I want this title: "My Cat's Black" to be "My Cats Black"

 

This is the line I am trying to edit.....

elseif ( is_single() ) { wp_title(''); print ' | '; bloginfo('name');  }

 

here is the full piece of code...

<title><?php 
if ( is_home() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; bloginfo('description'); } 
elseif ( is_search() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; _e('Search Results', 'woothemes');  }  
elseif ( is_author() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; _e('Author Archives', 'woothemes');  }  
elseif ( is_single() ) { wp_title(''); print ' | '; bloginfo('name');  }
elseif ( is_page() ) {  bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; bloginfo('description'); }
elseif ( is_category() ) {  single_cat_title(); print ' | '; bloginfo('name');  }  
elseif ( is_month() ) {  _e('Archive', 'woothemes'); print ' | '; the_time('F'); bloginfo('name'); }
elseif (function_exists('is_tag')) { if ( is_tag() ) {  bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; _e('Tag Archive', 'woothemes'); print ' | ';  single_tag_title("", true); } } 
?></title>

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

anyone? this is making me nuts....

if you want to strip out only single quote characters you could use str_replace("'", "", "My Cat's Black")

[mnybud]

yes I got that but how would I insert it properly in the code above is my problem....can you give a working example with the code above please? Thanks for the help!

<?php
elseif ( is_single() ) { wp_title(''); print ' | '; str_replace("'", "", bloginfo('name'));  }
?>

I actually want to replace it in the wp_title portion, how would I modify it to do that since it is using print?

 

<?php
elseif ( is_single() ) { wp_title(''); print ' | '; str_replace("'", "", bloginfo('name'));  }
?>

 

(thanks a lot for the help)

[mnybud]

is it not possible? Everything I try breaks things

[flolam]

so you want to remove the quotes from the return of wp_title? what does this function's definition look like?

the print is merely putting the "|" in the title as a separator I think you want

 

<?php
elseif ( is_single() ) { str_replace("'", "", wp_title('')); print ' | '; bloginfo('name');  }
?>
