Ok Im really new to all of this but I did finally get something to work the way that I wanted it to so im very excited

This is the title code to my site.
This will let you have a custom title for your main home page, another for your static pages, it will pull from lng.txt for help, cart, checkout, gift cert, order mess and thank you. and it will pull breadcrumbs in reverse order for all catagories and product so that the best keyword is first.

This was exactly what I was looking for and I hope that maybe someone else may save some time with this.

<TITLE> 
{if $main eq "catalog" and $current_category.category eq ""} 
Personalized Ribbons | Printed Ribbon | Napkins | & More
{section name=position loop=$location step=-1} 
{math equation="x-1" x=$smarty.section.position.total assign="secondlast"} 
{if $smarty.section.position.iteration ne $smarty.section.position.total}{$location[position].0|escape}{/if} 
{if $smarty.section.position.iteration ne $secondlast}{if not %position.last%}  {/if} {/if}
{/section} 
{elseif $main eq "help"}
{$lng.txt_subtitle_help}
{elseif $main eq "cart"}
{$lng.txt_subtitle_cart}
{elseif $main eq "checkout"}
{$lng.txt_subtitle_checkout}
{elseif $main eq "order_message"}
{$lng.txt_subtitle_thankyou}
{elseif $main eq "wishlist"}
{$lng.txt_subtitle_wishlist}
{elseif $main eq "giftcert"}
{$lng.txt_subtitle_giftcerts}
{elseif $main eq "pages"} 
Quality wedding products for Brides & Grooms at affordable prices - Bridal Land 
{else} 
{section name=position loop=$location step=-1}{$location[position].0|escape}{if not %position.last%} :: 
{/if}{/section}{/if}</TITLE>

I probably should have added that this works in 3.5.12 Im not sure if it will work in anyother version.

It seems to work very well in 4.0.17 (once I figured out to change the reference to brides, grooms, and ribbons!). Thanks for this.

[Corto_Maltese]

Well : where do you put these lines ? Which tpl or php file ?
Thanks

[crunch42]

skin1/customer/home.tpl starting at line 8, at least in my version.

Is there any way to pull in the actual title for static pages? This is a great mod, and that would make it even better... perhaps something like:

Static Page Name - Store Name

This would enable the individual pages to get better indexed.

Another minor note is that it's been suggested to use "-" instead of "::" because search engines don't like the non-standard characters... take your pick

Wait, I got it! This will display the title given to each static page:

<TITLE> 
{if $main eq "catalog" and $current_category.category eq ""} 
High-Grade Modern Gold, Silver, and Platinum Coinage! American Eagles and Commemoratives - Modern Coin Mart
{section name=position loop=$location step=-1} 
{math equation="x-1" x=$smarty.section.position.total assign="secondlast"} 
{if $smarty.section.position.iteration ne $smarty.section.position.total}{$location[position].0|escape}{/if} 
{if $smarty.section.position.iteration ne $secondlast}{if not %position.last%}  {/if} {/if} 
{/section} 
{elseif $main eq "help"} 
{$lng.txt_subtitle_help} 
{elseif $main eq "cart"} 
{$lng.txt_subtitle_cart} 
{elseif $main eq "checkout"} 
{$lng.txt_subtitle_checkout} 
{elseif $main eq "order_message"} 
{$lng.txt_subtitle_thankyou} 
{elseif $main eq "wishlist"} 
{$lng.txt_subtitle_wishlist} 
{elseif $main eq "giftcert"} 
{$lng.txt_subtitle_giftcerts} 
{elseif $main eq "pages"} 

{$page_data.title } - High-Grade Modern Coins - Modern Coin Mart

{else} 
{section name=position loop=$location step=-1}{$location[position].0|escape}{if not %position.last%} - 
{/if}{/section}{/if}</TITLE>

Mike,

I'm fairly new at this and am looking for a template, like your site, was it from a template or customised?

[rmoore]

MCM,

Nice Mod...... Thank you!

[keystone]

does anyone know if this mod will work with version 4.1.8? and do I replace the code already between the title tags with this code or just add it right after <title>{strip}?
Thanks
