Introduction

Sometimes it is necessary, for example, for SEO reasons, to change the browser page title:

In a show action you want to display the name of the record displayed.
In a list action the page number should be shown in the page title.
etc.

This extension makes use of the Page Title API and simplifies the setting of the page title.

Note

TYPO3 v14.0 introduced a new RecordTitleProvider which will make this extension obsolete.

Requirements

The extension in version main supports TYPO3 v11 LTS, TYPO3 v12 LTS and TYPO3 v13. Use an older version for compatibility with TYPO3 v9 LTS or TYPO3 v10 LTS.

Why should you use this extension?

It makes your developer's life a little easier. Of course, you can add a page title provider and the TypoScript configuration to your own extension. But imagine, you have some more extensions you would like to change the page title? You have to add the class again and again. With this extension you have only one piece of code and don't repeat yourself.

But please note: If you have two plugins on your page you will mostly need to write an own implementation to determine which plugin has precedence over the other.
