Title:

Need better helper text

» Provide better helper text

what is not good about

Put PHP code here that returns a string, but make sure you surround code in and . This string will be used as title.

?

I think you are really saying that you don't know PHP, which is fine, but in that case: don't use the feature :)

True, I don't know PHP or the Drupal API well. Is your module intended for the masses, or is it intended only for uber-PHP Drupal wizards?

The helper text says nothing about the format of the strings. I had to search extensively to figure out that I can use [field_name_1] [field_name_2] to combine fields in the title.

Please provide at least a modicum of helper text. Anything is better than nothing.

Oops!!! Now I see that you have a Replacement patterns section that opens up to explain more. I never clicked it because I thought that Replacement patterns referenced some additional functionality that I didn't think I needed, when in fact it references documentation. Sorry about that!
