    Question Change Title of Articles in CMS?

    Hello,

    I would like change the title's of the Articles of vBulletin CMS..What are the templates to modify?

    Example:

    Of default, the title of an article in the CMS is this:

    Title = Name CMS/Site - Name Article

    I would like setup only "Name Article" as title of Article's page on CMS, and remove the name of the CMS from the Articles or move it after the name of the Article.

    Title : Name Article - Name CMS/Site

    Someone who uses the CMS can tell me what changes do?

    Thank you

    template cms_page runs all the CMS pages as the main wrapper template. you can edit the title tag in there.

    Hi Brian,

    I would like to do the exact same as Jarod.

    I found the template, as well as the title tag:

    <title><vb:if condition="$vboptions['cmstitle']">{vb:raw vboptions.cmstitle}<vb:else />{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}</vb:if> - {vb:raw html_title}</title>
    However I have no idea how to change it so my article title appears first, and then the CMS name.

    Also, vbSEO being so SEO-optimized and all, I'm wondering why there isn't an option to to this from vbseo control panel ?

    thanks,

    Thomas

    {vb:raw html_title}
    is the ariticle's title. You can move that to the front, and kill the remainig - at the end as well if you want it up front.


    We haven't done much with the CMS as it continues to change drastically with every point release. It would be a wasted effort on our part and we simply don't have the man power that vB does to put out updated releases every couple weeks, and of course, we have the hard task of figuring out what changed, what broke, and how to fix it every time. Until the cms product becomes more stable, we aren't going to do too much to it. Plus, it would slow down everything if we have to make if statements on everything

    if vb4.1.8
    - do this
    if vb 41.7
    - do this
    if vb 4.1.7 pl1-
    no, do this

    and so on.... for EVERY action.

    It would quickly turn the code into a nightmare to maintain and would almost certainly introduce new bugs with every version.... and we can't have that.
