MODIFICATION: Overriding the <title> of certain pages

[cwp +]

Place this code into your layout.tpl template in place of the <title></title> tags. If you want to override the title of any page that displays the body of "viewlisting2.tpl" then you would put this template into the body=='viewlisting2.tpl' section of the code. I would keep the last title tags as is, as these can be controlled in your administration panel.

{if $body=='viewlisting2.tpl'}
        <title>{$title}</title>
        {else}
        <title>{$sitetitle}</title>
        {/if}

Thanks for posting these mods. I am sure this will make it easier for people to find that are looking for something similar.

I assume you can add other info to the title this way, like seller's city and state?

As long as the variables are there for the template to use you can display them however you like. You can use the debug console to determine what variables are there. Just keep in mind that variables change depending on the underlying script so you may have to add logic to check that and then perform accordingly.

If you use it for the viewlisting page, or any other page that uses those variables like lhotch said, then yes, as it works for me.
