expressionengine removing title requirement - expressionengine

How can I remove the requirement of having to need a title for my entry?
I basically wanted to use expression engine to list snippets of text as entries but they really have no title they are snippets. Is there a way to have a title automatically generate maybe a number everytime.
What can I do?

There's an add-on for that: http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/sp-title-filler/

NodeJS Jade (Pug) inline link in dynamic text

I have this NodeJS application, that uses Jade as template language. On one particular page, one text block is retrieved from the server, which reads the text from database.
The problem is, the returned text might contain line-breaks and links, and an operator might change this text at any time. How do I make these elements display correctly?
Most answers suggest using a new line:
p
| this is the start of the para
a(href='http://example.com') a link
| and this is the rest of the paragraph
But I cannot do this, since I cannot know when the a element appears. I've solved how to get newline correct, by this trick:
p
each l in line.description.split(/\n/)
= l
br
But I cannot seem to solve how to get links to render correctly. Does anyone know?
Edit:
I am open to any kind of format for links in the database, whatever would solve the issue. For example, say database contains the following text:
Hello!
We would like you to visit [a("http://www.google.com")Google]
Then we would like that to output text that looks like this:
Hello!
We would like you to visit Google
Looks like what you're looking for is unescaped string interpolation. The link does not work in the output because Pug automatically escapes it. Wrap the content you want to insert with !{} and it should stop breaking links. (Disclaimer: Make sure you don't leave user input unescaped - this only is a viable option if you know for sure the content of your DB does not have unwanted HTML/JS code in it.)
See this CodePen for illustration.
With this approach, you would need to use standard HTML tags (<a>) in your DB text. If you don't want that, you could have a look at Pug filters such as markdown-it (you will still need to un-escape the compilation output of that filter).

How to add bullets in featured snippet using structured data?

I want to add bullets in featured snippet. When i search for 'gastric balloon' in google it gives me featured snippet for this link www.bariatric-surgery-source.com/gastric-balloon.html as shows in below image :
PLEASE OPEN THIS IMAGE => https://i.stack.imgur.com/1MBoD.png .
I have marked those lines with red color i.e i want to make display them with bullets symbol instead of plain text.
Someone suggest me that it could be possible with structured data but how?
And which code i have to write and where?
You have done everything semantically, so I would make the assumption that Google will strip out any formatting, and apply their own.
Best thing you could do is mark it up with ListItem schema.
An list item, e.g. a step in a checklist or how-to description.

Drupal 7 Programmatically Replace Field in Views

I have a question regarding Drupal 7 and the Views API.
I'm writing a module that replaces specific text in views. Essentially what I'm trying to do is scan text in a view (or page for that matter). Let's say the view has [special button] will be replaced with
l(t('button'),'mypage',array('query',array('page'=>$node->nid)));
Or whatever. Please understand this is pseudo code.
I've took a look at hook_view(), hook_node_view() (http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21node%21node.api.php/function/hook_node_view/7) and neither of them seem to work for me.
I've also looked at http://drupal.org/node/1510828 but that didn't seem to help me out.
Have you tried selecting 'rewrite the output of this field' on the field/s ?
Or alternatively Views PHP should be able to do what you want.

listing same content on diffrent pages in MODX

I am trying to add a small "3 box news segment". I wanted it, to be visible on multiple pages. Normally I would just use chunks but the thing is that I want to be able to modify "3 box segment" content and preferably with a ritch text. Any Ideas how to accomplish that?
You can use getResources to grab the content from 3 hidden resources this way you still keep your chunks for the segment layouts and your actual content is in the resources [which you can update with the rich text editor].
Instead of getResources you could also use getResourceField to get the value of a field or template variable on for example the homepage. This allows one place to manage it, and you can just reference it with getResourceField when you want it to show elsewhere.

Is there a way to have a column in SharePoint which has multiple links?

I currently have a normal SharePoint list with about 15 columns or so. I need one of the columns to have a list of links. I know SharePoint lets you have 1 link and it also lets you have multiple lines of text... So I thought it would be there as an option, but no such luck. Anyone knows a solution for this? I wasn't able to find any info online, which doesn't happen often. I guess I wasn't looking for the right keywords? If anyone can point me into the right direction, it would be great!
Thanks

Maybe a multiplelines text field, and configured it to be Enhaced Rich Text enable. It would allow you to insert your links as in a HTML page (it would be the same as to use a CEWQ)
We have a custom filed CALLed Document Link Field that enabled you to link multiple documents to a list item, maybe this is what yuo are looking for. In any case either you need a custom field, or use a multiple lines of text
