How do I make store title show 'Store Name - Product Name'?

Can someone please let me know how I can make each page title (in top of browser, not breadcrumb.) dyamically show my store name, and the name of the current product. If no product is selected, then the title will just show my store name.

 

This would make a good contribution which will assist in search engine placements too...

 

Thanks for any assistance offered...

Tony

	<title><?php echo TITLE . ' : ' . $breadcrumb->currentTitle(); ?></title>

and in /catalog/includes/classes/breadcrumb.php add this function

    function currentTitle() {

     $tmp = end($this->_trail);

     return $tmp['title'];

   }

It will work with any language and that is the reason why no one who runs a shop in different languages should ever use it. Google will be confused to get a different title and document content for the same unique URL. But thats more a technical problem. It can be solved when oscommerce in general starts to use the "lang" and "hreflang" and/or "xml:lang" so that google and user who do use reader applications can more easily determine which language currently is being displayed. Without google and other search and indexing applications will fail.

However if you run your shop only in english (or in only one language to say it more in general) the above modification will work for you :-)

 

Have a nice day.

Do you get an error emssage and if what kind of? what does it say? Wich version of osCommerce are you using?

<title><?php echo STORE_NAME . ' - ' . $breadcrumb->currentTitle(); ?></title>

and do not forget to insert these lines 

function currentTitle() { 

     $tmp = end($this->_trail); 

     return $tmp['title']; 

   }

before the closing curly brace of the class breadcrumb in includes/classes/breadcrumb.php under you catalog directory.

 

I am sorry but I can only attempt to guess where the solution for you is as you are not specific enough to let me know what goes wrong or in another way.

right Chris,

 

you already posted a solution. Please allow me to offer another on (which by the way forces no extra database queries) ;-)

This solution does not print the product name; instead, it prints the product model number. To print the product name, you would have to either do a database query or change the way breadcrumb->trail is populated. If you check Blueline's posts, apparently he has posted a method with the db query in another thread.

 

When you ask for help, it is easier to diagnose if you explain *what* is not working. Without access to your site, it is a real pain to try to figure things out with nothing more than "I tried this and it didn't work." Is it not working on any page? Or just the product_info pages? Is it showing the dash? Is it giving an error? Have you tried any troubleshooting, like replacing $tmp['title'] with a constant string?

 

Hth,

Matt
