image headlines plugin date

sorry, i just figured that this would be a common enough problem that people would know what i was talking about. of course you’re right.

the image headline plugin works like a dream on my post titles. it’s when i try to follow the instructions on coldforged.org (http://www.coldforged.org/image-headlines-plugin-for-wordpress-15/) for using the plugin elsewhere that things start to go wonky.

what i did was install the runphp plugin and then replace <?php the_date(”,'<h2>’,'</h2>’); ?>
with the line <?php echo ImageHeadline_render( ‘<?php the_date(”,'<h2>’,'</h2>’); ?>’,’font-file=server/path/to/font.ttf”&font_color=#fff’); ?> in index.php.

on my public server, i didn’t get very far at all. i got the message:
“Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by path/to/wp-content/plugins/runphp.php:47” on every single admin page as soon as i activated the runphp plugin.

then, index.php showed this message: “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started atmy/server/path/wp-content/plugins/runphp.php:47) in my/server/path/wp-admin/admin.php on line 7

when i tried it on my local server, i had a bit more luck. no errors appeared on the admin pages. on index.php i got the message: “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING on line 8”. unfortunately, that’s all i got on the page.

i’ve been over it again and again and i can’t figure it out. i was wondering if i could use the wp-exec plugin instead of runphp, but i’m not sure how i would do that.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

thanks, i’ll try that this morning and update on my progress.

i will remember to post on your site in the future if i have a problem but i’m not sure i’ll need to; your plugins run effortlessly. they’re great and tremendously useful.
