You can do this in the store admin - where you name the store. It will show on every page. Start there... Hope that gets you pointed in the right direction. Take care- --Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddimus Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 if we google our site it comes up with untitled doc, we have named our store in the admin section.internet explorer does'nt find us at all.thanks If your store page is the page google is searching, then changing it in the admin section will work. Google doesn't update their servers very often, so you'll have to wait for them to perform an update. Also, if google is looking at a different page on your site, maybe a welcome page not made with osC, then you will need to edit the title of that page. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDLLC Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 we'll give it a go. thanks Looks like it is the default page of the store... It says "Untitled Document". Maybe look at the header.php... (includes/header.php) ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddimus Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I could see it in the source of your index.html page. Here's some of the source: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> If you can edit the html on that page, index.html, you'll be able to change the Untitled Document to whatever you wish.
