[Solved] HTML Title for the CustomPage Plugin

mclovin

Anyone knows how to override the HTML page title for a custom page created by the custom page plugin?

Todd

I'm not 100% familiar with the plugin, but the following should work if you put it in the custom page php file:

$this->SetData('Title', 'Foo');

or

$this->Head->Title('Foo')

Those both do something slightly different, so try them both out and see what you like.

Todd

Oh okay, I think Gdn::Controller() may be in the current release then. Just try $this->SetData('Title', 'Foo').

Here is what the custom plugin code looks like:

public function PluginController_Page_Create(&$Sender) {
                // See what page was requested
                $Page = ArrayValue('0', $Sender->RequestArgs, 'default');
                ..............
                $Path = PATH_PLUGINS . DS . 'CustomPages' . DS . 'pages' . DS;
                ............
                $Sender->Title('Generic title for all custom pages');
                $Sender->MasterView = $MasterView;
                $Sender->Render($Path.$Page.'.php');
   }

Then on the default.php which is a custom page, I dont think I can do:

Gdn:Controller()->Head->Title('Foo')

Did you try it?

Todd

You do, it's global. It should point to the same thing as $this in the view.

I tried

<?php Gdn::Controller()->SetData('Title', 'Foo'); ?>
or
<?php Gdn:Controller()->Head->Title('Foo')?>

It says:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Gdn::controller() in ......

Oh okay, I think Gdn::Controller() may be in the current release then. Just try $this->SetData('Title', 'Foo').

Awesome. Worked perfectly. Thank you @Todd.
