[fixed] News Plugin : Only the first word is displayed in the navigation bar (1 Viewer)

[chefkoch]

fix has been committed in the following branch: https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/compare/dev...FIX_NewsNavbarFeedTitle
Before merging this to dev I would like to clear things up, why this code was used.

Hello from the Alps
The only reason IIRC was to shorten what is displayed text in the Navbar. Some Feeds have really long titles. I didn't think of prefixes like "the, der, le" or so. So from my pov, merge the branch.

Cheers, and enjoy your remaining holidays

The navbar could be improved and reworked separately to take care of trimming elements instead of removing them completely.
Here is an ugly mockup:

Nevertheless this is a separate feature request / topic.
