Introduction¶

What does it do?¶

The goal of this extension is to define by several ways the html title of your pages (<title> tag) :

First, you can define a default generic layout for your title which is inherited by all sub pages. Eg : “Default string - Page title“. The first element “Default string” is static and the second one, “Page title”, is dynamic and corresponds to a page header field (here “Page title”).
Second, you can define a custom and specific title for a given page which override the generic layout (if its value not blank). The value of this specific title can be the one of the new field “Browser title” but can be also any field of the header page.
Third, if the default generic layout and the specific title values are blank, “Page title” field is used (can't be blank).
Fourth, this mechanism works independentlyfor each alternative languages.

Screenshots¶

No screenshots.

Users manual¶

Your web site administrator has defined a default layout for your pages title (eg ) but you can define a specific title for each page. To do this on your default language page you must :

Click on “Web > page” module
Select a page
Edit the page header
Edit “Browser title” field
Save. That's it !! Now see this new page title in frontend
You can do the same thing for your alternative languages pages by editing the correspondent header

Configuration¶

TS configuration needed. See “Reference” part.

Reference¶

defaultTitle¶

Property

defaultTitle

Data type

string

Description

You can define here a layout of your choice. Eg :

static string 1

static string 1 - {dynamic field}

static string 1 - {dynamic field} - static string 2

{dynamic field}

{dynamic field} - static string 2

etc...

You can specify just one dynamic field. This dynamic field corresponds to the field name in the database table “pages”. This dynamic field must be surrounded by curly brackets { }.

When you define a static string and a dynamic field for defaultTitle , the value will be considered as blank if the dynamic field value is blank, even if the static string value (of course) is not.

defaultTitle is used only if currentTitle value is blank.If defaultTitle is evaluated as blankthe “Page title” header field is used.

Default

currentTitle¶

Property

currentTitle

Data type

Description

Like defaultTitle.

tx_browserpagetitle_browser_title is the database field name corresponding to the new “Browser title” field in page header.

Default

Example¶

You have to put some typoscript in the Setup of your main template. This is an example of the “standard“ configuration (see Reference subsection for details) :

# Including the class and calling the right function

includeLibs.tx_browserpagetitle = typo3conf/ext/browser_page_title/class.tx_browserpagetitle.php

config.titleTagFunction = tx_browserpagetitle->getTitle

# Default language parameters

plugin.browser_page_title {

defaultTitle = Bonjour tout le monde - {title}

currentTitle = {tx_browserpagetitle_browser_title}

}

# Alternative language parameters

[globalVar=GP:L=1]

plugin.browser_page_title.defaultTitle = Hello everybody - {title}

plugin.browser_page_title.currentTitle = {tx_browserpagetitle_browser_title}
