get_the_title()

💡 云策文档标注

概述

get_the_title() 函数用于检索文章标题,支持处理受保护和私密文章的前缀添加,并可通过过滤器钩子进行自定义。

关键要点

  • 函数接受可选参数 $post,可以是文章 ID 或 WP_Post 对象,默认使用全局 $post。
  • 返回字符串类型的文章标题,非管理员访问时,受保护文章会添加“Protected:”前缀,私密文章会添加“Private:”前缀。
  • 内部使用 get_post() 获取文章数据,并应用 protected_title_format、private_title_format 和 the_title 过滤器。
  • 函数允许 HTML 内容,输出时需根据安全需求使用 esc_html() 或 wp_kses_post() 进行转义。
  • 相关函数包括 the_title() 用于显示标题,the_title_attribute() 用于属性安全输出。

代码示例

// 打印当前文章标题
echo get_the_title();

// 安全输出标题(转义 HTML)
echo esc_html( get_the_title() );

// 允许特定 HTML 标签输出
echo wp_kses_post( get_the_title() );

注意事项

  • get_the_title() 返回的标题可能包含通过 the_title 过滤器添加的 HTML 标记,直接输出需谨慎处理安全风险。
  • 如需原始标题值(未过滤),可直接访问 WP_Post 对象的 post_title 属性,例如 get_post($post_id)->post_title。
  • 在主题或插件开发中,应根据上下文选择适当的转义函数,避免 XSS 漏洞。

User Contributed Notes

  1. Skip to note 6 content

    get_the_title should be escaped.

    Super admins and administrators have the ability to enter arbitrary HTML in the title field, but that doesn’t prevent problems from appearing, for example:

    • A rogue administrator adds a script tag with malicious javscript
    • A hacker manages to change the title via an exploit
    • A compromised plugin uses a filter to change the title
    • A broken plugin allows it to be changed
    • A hacker has broken into Redis/APC/Memcached and modified the cache
    • File based caches have been compromised

    All of this is a non-issue with escaping, which makes sure what’s outputted is what you expected. That doesn’t mean you can’t let users put HTML in there, as long as you specify which tags are allowed

    To display the title safely, do this:

    echo esc_html( get_the_title() );

    And if you want the title to include HTML tags:

    echo wp_kses_post( get_the_title() );

    Print the current post’s title

    echo get_the_title();

    Simple breadcrumb trail for pages, two levels deep.

     
    echo '<div class="breadcrumb">';
    	// If there is a parent, display the link.
    	$parent_title = get_the_title( $post->post_parent );
    
    	if ( $parent_title != the_title( ' ', ' ', false ) ) {
    		echo '<a href="' . esc_url( get_permalink( $post->post_parent ) ) . '" alt="' . esc_attr( $parent_title ) . '">' . $parent_title . '</a> » ';
    	}
    
    	// Then go on to the current page link.
    	echo '<a href="' . esc_url( get_permalink() ) . '" rel="bookmark" alt="' . esc_attr( get_the_title() ) . '">' . get_the_title() . '</a>';
    echo '</div>';

    get_the_title is being filtered before value return. If you are checking for raw value of a post title, for empty titles you might get an ‘untitled’ string value depending on the locale of the blog. In order to get raw value of a post title, use get_post and access its post_title property
