I meant to ask “Is there a way to alter the TITLE tag?” Oh I see why it didn’t show up right.. It filtered my HTML cuz I put it between

This is almost perfect. Is there a way to alter the tag of the output? It is the same tag for every user you type in so when I add it to my feed syndicater on Wordpress it tries to add all posts to the same account, Twitter (no @ replies)

What a wonderful simple solution, thanks. I tweaked it slightly to edit out RTs too, now my twitter updates look almost sane enough to publish to the wider world!

This worked great for me along with the wordpress simplepie plugin.

Thanks!

Thanks, very useful.

In case anyone else is trying to get this to work, I successfully combined your pipe with the Twitter for Wordpress plugin by editing the plugin php – look for the “$messages = fetch_rss” line and change the url to the rss feed that this pipe creates.

If you want to do this without using Yahoo Pipes, you can filter out @replies with a short bit of javascript added to your blog page. Have a look here for my script to do the necessary filtering:

[...] I took a Yahoo! Pipe created by mat.su that basically replaced the part where the author’s name would be with a “^” and [...]

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed. I am using simplepie.inc to import my Twitter status to my website, but it did not include a way to exclude @replies, so this solved it perfectly!

Thanks! You easily saved me the time I would have wasted doing this in Pipes myself. It would be nice if it could be stripped down even further to just show the title and not the content (as that’s just a repeat of the title, and with the nickname back in) but this is very nice.

Fantastic!
Exactly what I needed to avoid all the @replies to be feed in my blog.
Great work. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks a lot! You saved me from having to write this filter in PHP, in which I’m not a big expert )
