How do I display the category name instead of "Categori

[westkoast]

When you click on a category in the left categories nav, the page title diaplays "Categories"

 

Does anyone know how I can change this to display the name of the category the user is in...ie. "Hardware" or what ever category they are in...

this requires some editing of the default.php file.

 

Back up this file before proceeding!!!!

 

Find all occurences of;

 

<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>

 

....and change with.....

 

<td class="pageHeading" align="right">

<?php 

  $cats_query = tep_db_query("select cd.categories_name from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd where cd.categories_id = '" . $current_category_id . "' and cd.language_id = '" . $languages_id . "'");

     $cats = tep_db_fetch_array($cats_query);

  echo $cats['categories_name']; 

?>

</td>

 

This should show the category name in the listing rather than 'Categories'

 

Let me know how things go and please back up the default.php file before starting!!!!!!

The change I made was slightly different and will save you the extral sql query when loading category listings. I am by no means a php expert, so I may have missed something. It works great on my site though.

 

In /catalog/includes/languages/[lang_here]/default.php:

 

Find the define for heading_title and change it to

 

  define('HEADING_TITLE', ucwords(strtolower($categories['categories_name'])));
