Reported in https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension_talk:RSS&offset=20120524012622&lqt_mustshow=15624#x.23sub_ParserFunction_doesn.27t_work_anymore_15114 I used this snippet to trim/strip long title segments in the RSSPost-Template: {{#sub:{{{title}}}|0|60}}}} But after updating from version 1.9 to 2.16 20120424 it doesn't work anymore. The parser function is not applied to the title. I already switched to the new template name etc. Therefore I can't use the latest version in my production environemnt, because the long title will destroy my layout respectively my main page.
This may be indeed a regresssion caused by one of the latest changes. I'll try to fix this with some priority.
T. Gries: You assigned this issue to yourself two years ago. Could you please provide a status update and inform us whether you are still working (or still plan to work) on this issue? Only in case you do not plan to work on this issue anymore, should the assignee be set back to default and the bug status changed from ASSIGNED to NEW/UNCONFIRMED? Thanks.
