Remove or turn off link on title?

Asked by Dave

Once a user clicks on the Title, they are taken to the full extent of the article. The title on this page is still set as a link - which may (and has) confused readers. Is there a way once someone clicks to read the full article that the title link is no longer available - since they're already there? Where is this generated?

Hello,

This isn't possible, unless you wish to modify code in shownews.php. If
you want to do this manually, I can guide you through the process.
Please respond again if you would like this.

Thanks alecwh, I would love to know where this can be changed in the code.

Dave,

I've re-examined the code in shownews.php, and it turns out, it's a lot
more complicated than I originally thought. The link is handled in the
template, not the hard code. (It's been awhile since I've reviewed this
portion of code...)

To solve this problem would call for a reform in template management,
and allow "variables" to be used inside the template fields.
Unfortunately, this is too big of a task for a project that has ceased
active development (except major bugs and security bugs).

Feel free to branch the project and "do it yourself". We'll happily
merge it in with our development branch!

Sorry I couldn't be more of assistance.

Can you help with this problem?
