Hi, as always thanks for the super reliable support.
This time i must be doing something wrong with the pagetitle extra field i tried to set for the new website i'm working on. I previously managaed to do this on other websites but time has passed and i no longer remember the steps.
Anyway i assigned the items of this category (valpelliceoutdoor.it/attivita/trekking/bobbio-pellice) the extra-field "PageTitle", in order to have it used as the browser page title instead of the default one.
I then proceeded to put this in item.php, just below the itemHeader opening tag:

Warning: Spoiler!


But this does not work. Any suggestions?

Did you check if $newtitle returns anything? Just to be on the safe side, you could wrap everything after the $newtitle assignment to an if statement that checks if a value is returned for it...

The only other reason why the <title> would not change is some 3rd party plugin for SEO/meta tags.

Hi Fotis,

A piggy back question on this topic... if I customise the Page Title via this method will the Open Graph title also be updated?

Thanks

Nathan

No, because it's created before the template renders. You'll need to override that meta tag as well.

Thanks Fotis, that makes sense.
