I’m not sure if there are other ways to do it, but I usually use the ‘the_title’ filter hook.
Try something like this:

function stham_the_title ( $title ) {

	if ( in_the_loop() && ! is_page() ) {
		if ( ! $title )
			$title = __( 'No title', 'stham' );
	}
	return $title;

}
add_filter( 'the_title', 'stham_the_title' );

However, the above only changes the title in the blog listing page (if I remember correctly). The title could still be blank in other spots, e.g. between your <title> tags (you can use the ‘wp_title’ filter hook for that). I can’t quite remember now what other spots might still be sporting a blank post title. Just check carefully when you’re doing your testing.

I may be wrong here but I believe all posts will have permalinks. WordPress will auto-generate the permalink based on your post’s title. If there’s no title, I believe it uses the post’s ID.

Also, the_title() is not suitable to be used as part of the title attribute in a link. Use the_title_attribute() instead.

Hope that helps.

Ah, my apologies. I was looking at the list of links near the bottom of your article.

Go back to the Edit Post screen for the post. Beneath the post’s title, you should see the permalink to your post. The permalink should say “http://agentwithresults.com/tomball-tx-first-time-home-buyers-guide-the-home-offer/&#8221;

If it doesn’t, click on “Edit” and enter the correct permalink. The front portion of the link (i.e. your domain) isn’t editable but that’s okay. Just enter “tomball-tx-first-time-home-buyers-guide-the-home-offer” into the back portion. And click on “OK”.

If that still doesn’t work, you can also try to go to Settings -> Permalinks. Click on “Save Changes”. Sometimes the permalink settings need to be saved twice.

I don’t quite understand what you mean by “with its template applied”, but you can use get_page_by_path() to retrieve a particular page and its contents if you know its path. It will return a WP_Post object containing information such as title, excerpt, content, etc.

If you just want to call a template file from within another template file, you can use get_template_part(). What this does is it pulls in the contents of one template file and sticks it in a particular spot. It works just like get_header() and get_footer(), and you can specify which template file you want to pull in.

If what you need to do is read/write to local files, you can use WordPress’s Filesystem API:

Hope one of the above is helpful.

To find out if it’s one of the plugins causing the error, you have to disable all the plugins and then re-enable them one at a time and test the search again.

I took a look at your site and noticed that you are using a theme called Simple’n’Bright. If that is correct, then the option for changing your address in that theme is located under the theme’s options.

In your admin area, go to Theme Options -> Contact. You should see a list of fields for your contact info.

Hope this helps.

I’m sorry about your husband’s passing. Could you provide a link to your site so we can try to work this out?

Hi,

Your friend’s site looks like it has been infected with Blackhat SEO Spam.

You can try the suggestions posted by Krishna on this thread.

I also tried running the site through
Sucuri’s SiteCheck Scanner and there were 2 pages which looked like they may (or may not) be contributing to the problem: 404testpage4525d2fdc and 404javascript.js.

If they’re not pages that your friend’s site needs, I would suggest removing them, even if they are not the root cause of the problem.

Hope this helps.
