Coding the post title as a url


I did this by using class="post-title" inside h3 tags in the body of the blog post and didn't use the title box.
I published the post and then came back to it and edited the title to include the link to the post reference.
The only problem with this is that you have to publish the post in order to get the url.
However if I do the whole post first next time before going back to edit the title then the ATOM feed will be the entire post, and not just the title as in this case!
