   I'm struggling for ages now to have the way the date is displayed changed through the TTF Titles plugin .
   Recently I asked Joni from Pixelita Design about how to change it since he has written a very useful (for others) information page about how to change different parts of your blog with the TTF Titles plugin to be found here.

   He gave me a few solutions, but all to no avail.
   I was wondering if there is anyone on the forums who can help me sort this out.

   The code which calls the date in my theme is:
   <span class="published"><abbr class="published-time" title="<?php the_time('j.M.y') ?>"><?php the_time('j.M.y') ?></abbr></span>

   What code do I need to change the font that the date has, to a font replaced with the TTF Titles Plugin?
   I hope someone can solve this cause it would def help me.

   Thanks in advance,
   Roy

   Well, since I've had too many tries without any luck and no answers to my questions but with a deadline to catch, I decided to leave this plugin for what it is and look for something else... GLAD I found a nice little script which beats the TTF titles plugin anytime, anywhere!

   I can recommend CUFON. This is similar to SIFR, but without the use of flash and without the hassle.

   Visit: Cufon and download the needed javascripts. Throw the replacement font you want to use through the generator and download the javascript file.

   Upload the javascript(s) to your server, point to the javascripts in your header.php and add this line to your header:

   <script type="text/javascript">
   			Cufon.replace('h1');
   		</script>

   Where "h1" is your part you would like to see replaced with the chosen font. Copy/paste the above snippet and add other CSS classes to it and it will automatically replace those classes with the replacement font you chose.

   Easy as 123!

   Hope this helps other people who are having troubles replacing other than post titles on the website. You can simply add the CSS class and it will replace the text with your replacement font.

   Cheers!
