To be more specific, I think the question is:
How do I use custom actions and filters to make the post description link to the post? I see there’s a standard filter for wpc_item_description, but I haven’t been successful with the code I’ve added to my functions.php file.
Thanks.

OK, so I mostly have this figured out using the code below, but I can’t get $params[‘post_url’] to print the url:
function my_wpc_item_description( $description, $params ) {
$description .= '<a href="'. $params['post_url'] .'" title="'. $params['post']->post_title .'">'. $params['post']->post_excerpt .'</a>';
return $description;
}
add_filter('wpc_item_description', 'my_wpc_item_description', 1, 2);

Never mind. Got it to work with this:
function my_wpc_item_description( $description, $params ) {
$description .= '<a href="'. get_permalink() .'" title="'. $params['post']->post_title .'">'. $params['post']->post_excerpt .'</a>';
return $description;
}
add_filter('wpc_item_description', 'my_wpc_item_description', 1, 2);
Sorry for working this out in public, but maybe it’ll help someone else in the future.
I’m glad you were able to solve this issue 😉
