Dear sirs:

I have been trying to get CMS to include the title of the page in the "title tag" without luck. I also want to display a "breadcrumbs" for example if I am in a sub section I would like to show something like:

Main Section : Sub Section
TITLE OF THE PAGE BEING VISITED

How can I do this

Can you please post the complete PHP source code to the page you're working on?
All the best,

Thank you Chris, here it is:

<?php header('Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8'); ?>
<?php


// load viewer library
$libraryPath = 'cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php';




$dirsToCheck = array('/home/casahem/public_html/','','../','../../','../../../');
foreach ($dirsToCheck as $dir) { if (@include_once("$dir$libraryPath")) { break; }}
if (!function_exists('getRecords')) { die("Couldn't load viewer library, check filepath in sourcecode."); }

// load records

list($categoryRecords, $selectedCategory) = getCategories(array( 'tableName' => 'categories', 'categoryFormat' => 'twolevel', ));
list($articlesRecords, $articlesMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'articles',

));

Hi svsanchez,

This looks like a list viewer -- meaning that the page displays many records, not just one. What would you want the title of the page to be?
All the best,
Chris

Hi svsanchez,

Because it's a list page, there isn't one specific article -- on a detail page you could do that no problem, but a list page has no one article -- it's got a list of them. :)

Doesn't that page display multiple articles?

To make it display the first article's title as the title of the page, change this:

<title>Techos</title>

...to this:

<title><?php
if (!empty($articlesRecords)) {
echo $articlesRecords[0]['title'];
}
else {
echo "Techos"; // default title if no articles were found
}
?></title>

Does that help?
All the best,
Chris

Hi svsanchez,

Oops, I should have guessed that's what you wanted!

Try this:

<title><?php
if ($selectedCategory) {
echo $selectedCategory['title'];
}
else {
echo "Techos"; // default title if no category was selected
}
?></title>

Does that work? Please let me know if you have any questions.
All the best,
Chris
