Editing the title (not story titles, meta title)

**SportsGuy** · 08-04-2007, 04:48 PM

OK, so the title tag isn't really "meta", but you know...

I want to know how to change that bit. I found the meta tag template earlier, so that's covered.

Still puzzled over where to change the main title, though.

UPDATED:

Found this in the pligg.tpl file via another post here:

<title>{$pretitle}{#PLIGG_Visual_Name#}{$posttitle }</title>

So, where can I find the info feeding into this little thing?

Are you talking about the title of the page that shows up in the title bar of a web browser as shown in this picture?

You can edit that in the .php files. Every php file should have code that looks like this that sets the page title

Code:

$main_smarty->assign('posttitle', " / " . $main_smarty->get_config_vars('PLIGG_Visual_Profile_ModifyProfile'));

That code is in profile.php and sets the page title for the profile page.

In /templates/your_template/pligg.tpl you will see where <title></title> is used in the html code

Code:

<title>{$pretitle}{#PLIGG_Visual_Name#}{$posttitle}</title>

Excellent

In /templates/your_template/pligg.tpl you will see where <title></title> is used in the html code

Code:

<title>{$pretitle}{#PLIGG_Visual_Name#}{$posttitle}</title>

...and my original question remains - how do I edit this code to get the desired result? When I last made a change to the code I originally posted in my first post, it broke the site - so clearly it didn't like my change.

Seeing the reference in the "Smarty" code is great, but again, what do I do?

My goal is NOT to remove any post titles hat are included in titles, but to remove the reference to Pligg and place my own information in it's place.
