Nesting Function arguments in custom columns
I am trying to create a custom column that requires a lowercase Authors and lowercase Title with all the punctuation stripped out. So far I have this:
http://releases.dearauthor.com/wp-content/coverimages/{author:lowercase()}/{title:lowercase()}({id})/cover.jpg I know I can use re to strip out the punctation such as re(,\,) but I'm not sure where I put that to affect "author". Do I make two additional custom columns. One to make the author lowercase and then another to strip out the punctuation using re. lowercaseauthor:re(\,,) did not work as an argument. I did figure out a solution. There are probably more elegant solutions. I created four columns. The first two to get the author and title to lower case and then the next two to strip out punctuation and spaces. {#lowercaseauthor:re([?!. ],)} {#lowercasetitle:re([?!. ],)} Last edited by da_jane; 11-21-2012 at 02:47 PM. Reason: Figured out a solution |
