p2p_candidate_title returns nothing?

Hello,

I have been trying to display additional meta data next to the candidate connection title.

Here’s my code (I have a meta field with a meta key of “OriginalID” in my post_meta table):
```
function append_info_to_candidate_title( $title, $ctype, $post ) {
	if ( 'tweets_to_posts' == $ctype->name && 'tweet' == $post->post_type ) {
		$title .= " (" . $post->OriginalID . ")";
	}

	return $title;
}
add_filter( 'p2p_candidate_title', 'append_info_to_candidate_title', 10, 3 );
```
Even if I ask the function just to add a static text string to the candidate title, I get nothing.

Any pointers are very much appreciated, thanks.

Posting my solution in case it helps someone.

It turns out that the function parameter order creates the problem. The order is supposed to be:

function append_info_to_candidate_title( $title, $post, $ctype )

and not:

function append_info_to_candidate_title( $title, $ctype, $post )

Here’s how I got the candidate title to display post author and post date:

// add author + date to the title
function append_author_to_candidate_title( $title, $post, $ctype ) {
	if ( 'tweets_to_posts' == $ctype->name && 'tweet' == $post->post_type ) {

		$user_info = get_userdata($post->post_author);
		$tweet_person = $user_info-> display_name;
		$tweet_date = get_the_time('j/m/Y G:i', $post->ID);
		$title .= " - <span style='color: red;'>". $tweet_person . "</span> - <span style='color: blue;'>" . $tweet_date . "</span>";
	}
	return $title;
}
add_filter( 'p2p_candidate_title', 'append_author_to_candidate_title', 10, 3 );
