[wp-hackers] Custom Post Type

[Dan Larkin]

Well, the filter is just two lines.  The first is the replacement line, now
with str_replace instead of eregi_replace (thanks for the speed tip).  The
second is 'return $where;'.  That's it.  Is there something I'm forgetting?
Again, I'm new to using hooks.

Anyway, I already tried switching the double and single quotes and
eliminating the parentheses within the replacement string just to be sure,
but no luck.
