Changing Title in Internet Title bar

DragnSoul · November 7, 2006

I'm trying to figure out how to change the title that appears on the internet title bars of browsers. I am banging my head with this... I have tried meta tags, HTML headers and still no luck. All it shows when I load up my store is "Untitled Document" which I find unprofessional for my shop. I have done all the above changes in my header.php file but that could be why it's not working... Maybe it's supposed to be done on another file which I am not aware of. I appreciate all and any help that you all may have! Thanks!

Have you tried to edit your english.php file in catalog/includes/languages/english.php

in the admin section go to configuration-my store and check out the store name

Thanks for the help but I checked my store name in the admin panel and that's exactly what it should be, and as for the English.php file, I believe it's right because of this code snippet:

// page title
define('TITLE', STORE_NAME);

I still don't know where to look... On the bright side, I do have the name appearing on some pages, but not all. Basically, in the index and products, it doesn't show up, the rest seems fine. Hopefully this will help you help me a bit more. :)

Here's an update of what's going on:

If I'm a guest the title doesn't come up, but if I go to the login page, or create account page, that's when it starts to show up. I have SSL running for those portions. Could it be the SSL creating a problem?

How are you putting the headers on your pages? Are you using Search Friendly Urls? Tag control? or are you doing something else?

When you say after SSL title starts to show, do all pages show titles then?

I can't see your site listed in your profile... is it live?

I t might help if we can see the actual problem...

I use HTC tag control contrib and it works great.

Sorry, you're right I should list the site url: DreamyScraps You will notice that when you go to the site it just says Untitled document, but if you enter the account creation process or you hve an account it shows "DreamyScraps". More than likely I got nothing that you mentioned (which could very well be my problem). I will look into the HTC tag control contrib though also. I'm hoping someone can help me since I'm going bald lol! Thanks!

No problem you have a <title> tag twice in the index.php

in fact it looks like you inserted whole html docs infront of your store page below needs to be removed for your problem to go away...

You are probably putting html tags in include files only your main pages need html; index, product, new_product, review, contact_us, etc...

not header, application top, etc....

Oh my god!!! Thanks for pointing this out to me... I figured out where the second tag was coming from! I added the mod to disallow right click, and in the disable.php file, the title was set to "Untitled Document". I did change it and now everything comes in like it should... Basically it was an idiot mistake lol. Now that you pointed it out to me I will be looking for another way to code the disabling of right click to something more robust. Thanks for the help, your comments pointed me to the right place!

There is no 'robust' way to disable right click - it takes two seconds to disable javascript in my browser and then I can happily right click all I want..... everybody knows this (almost).
