Here’s a quicky one How do you change page title of every Magento page if some titles are hardcoded into controller?
Since some controllers in Magento likes to force page titles like
|
1
2
3
4
|
$this->loadLayout();...$this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->setTitle($this->__('My Account'));$this->renderLayout(); |
we can’t go with setTitle through layout, since controller is setting title right before rendering.
There is a simple solution for this, use another variable for title display
In page/html/head.phtml template replace default
|
1
|
<title>< ?php echo $this->getTitle() ?></title> |
with
|
1
2
3
|
<title>< ?php echo ($this->getForcedTitle()) ? Mage::getStoreConfig('design/head/title_prefix').' '.$this->getForcedTitle().' '.Mage::getStoreConfig('design/head/title_suffix') : $this->getTitle() ?></title> |
or if you don’t wish to use title prefix/sufix added from Magento admin, simply with
|
1
2
3
|
<title>< ?php echo ($this->getForcedTitle()) ? $this->getForcedTitle() : $this->getTitle() ?></title> |
and now just set “forced” title for pages through layout files
|

|
<reference name="head"><action method="setForcedTitle"><title>Account Dashboard</title></action></reference> |
Example for My Account page in layout/customer.xml:
<customer_account>
<reference name=”head”>
<action method=”setForcedTitle”><title>Account Dashboard</title></action>
</reference>
…
</customer_account>
