Is there any way for a plugin filter function to detect when the_content is being called within a post or page only?
For instance, when the_excerpt_rss() is called from another plugin or theme, it also calls the_content so my filter gets loaded.
The problem is that my filter should only run when the_content is actually outputting the content (in full) on the page.
Is there any way to detect this, or possible workarounds?
This would obviously not be a good idea to use in the plugin, but iterating through debug_backtrace() came to mind as a possible technical option.
Anything else come to mind?

I read in a nettuts tutorial that you can use
return (is_single()) ? $variableName
at the end of your plugin to return the filtered text only when the post is viewed in full. Hope that helps.
Hi Migweld, thanks for trying to help. :) Unfortunately the filter needs to function on the front page as well, not just single pages.
Other ideas?
