    Hi there,

    first of all, thanks for your amazing plugin!!!

    I am experiencing some trouble implementing the “before content” filter. Basically, if you open a PDF on my website (https://easteuropeanfilmbulletin.com/dancer-in-the-dark/?pdf=120), it will show the title of the PDFed post on ALL PDF pages. I want to change this to have it show only on the FIRST page of the PDF. I have two questions:

    1. Can I have the title show only on the first page by using the “before content” filter?
    2. If so, could you roughly tell me how I can do this? I saw that you have a documentation regarding your filters, but I don’t know where to enter them… (I have experience working with php on my website, but haven’t ever added filters or altered plugins, so I don’t know which php files I need to add/alter to make the title disappear on all but the first page of the PDF.)

    Thanks in advance!!!!!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I have found an inelegant php solution (see PDF link above), would still appreciate general advice on the possibility of working with filters (as mentioned, I just want to know WHERE I have to add the filters). Thanks!

    Hi Morris Gilles,

    you can add the filter in your theme (or child theme) functions.php

    to show the post title before the content you can use something like this:

    function custom_dkpdf_before_content() {
   $output = '<h1>'.get_the_title().'</h1>';
   return $output;
}
add_filter( 'dkpdf_before_content', 'custom_dkpdf_before_content' );

    Thanks,
    Emili
