It seems to have worked, thanks to a tip from @ciudadanob I’ve rearranged my blog. Status posts are now kept off the home page. Status posts, although they have titles in WordPress do not have in RSS. So the content of the posts flows through to micro.blog.
@Chris
function jjmicroblog_titlelessrss($content) {
$postformat=get_post_format();
if ($postformat==\'status\'){
$content=\"\";
}
return $content;
}
add_filter(\'the_title_rss\', \'jjmicroblog_titlelessrss\');
@johnjohnston Good stuff the difference an ‘s’ makes – ‘posts’ v ‘post’ – when you can’t see for looking.
