    Actinic software title incorrect

    Hi all,

    Is there any way that I can change the software title name.

    At the very top of the actinic software, it says "online store name - Online Catalogue".

    The online store name is incorrect and I would like to change it, but I don't know where the setting is to change it. It is using an old name that is incorrect.

    Hope this makes sense?!?!?

    Does anyone know how to change it?

    Thanks guys,
    Simon

    The name is in the shop top settings, click on the green wad of dollars.

      Cheers for that Lee, but I can't find it -- is it at the point of install, or can I edit it after install?

      Thanks again,
      Simon

          Meta title tag on the catalogue

          I have a like problem that is not solveable as suggested. For instance my title in the "wad of notes" on the catalogue title is "buy online". However when you view catalogue source of the web page as displayed in IE at

          http://www.phoenixfireworks.co.uk/ac..._online_UK.htm

          it comes out as follows

          <html>
          <head>
          <title>Phoenix Fireworks buy online</title>

          So the system puts in the company name "Phoenix Fireworks" automatically before the "buy online". However I do not want this in the meta title and wish to remove "Phoenix Fireworks".

          Any ideas how to do it?

          Thanks in advance

                In design view click on the very top of your content tree.

                What does it say between the <title></title> tags?

                  To clarify:

                  If you do not specify a page title in a section's "Page Title" field in the section details "Page Settings" tab then Actinic automatically assigns a page title based on:

                  "Company Name" + "Section Name"

                  i.e.

                    more info

                    Firstly thanks everyone for your replies and suggestions, here is more info and replies to your kind advice.

                    Daren B to answer your question: the very top of the content tree has the page title of "Buy Online" and yet when I look at the web page gerated by actinic in IE it comes out as <title>Phoenix Fireworks buy online</title>

                    Olderscot to answer your questions

                    In design view on the top of the content tree is has the following

                    "Buy Online"

                    Fergusw, the top of the content tree (which is the top product page eg the "wad of notes" ) is titled "Buy online" and is different from the other catologue or product pages as in its associated catalogue details the "page setting" tab has only the option to change the "Base page Name"

                    The plot thickens...

                      Ken,
                      The catalog store home page is created, by default, from:

                      [company name] + [Catalog Section Name]

                      i.e. the company name is in Business Settings | Company Contact tab and the Catalog section name is the "Name" field in the General Tab of the "wad of notes" item.

                      To control this more manually you would have to use some BlockIf conditions to change the title when at the shop top level.
                      I believe the condition is <actinic:variable name="IsStoreFrontPage" />

                        looking good

                        Outstanding Fergus!

                        so if I put in the following;

                        <actinic:block if="<actinic:variable name="IsStoreFrontPage" />">
                        <title>The site title I want to put in</title>
                        </actinic:block>

                        however I need to do something after the expression so that we do not get two titles, like....

                        else
                        <title><actinic:variable name="PageTitle" /></title>
                        end

                        CAN you do "Else" with "block if"?

                        OR

                        should I try


                        <actinic:block if="<actinic:variable name="IsStoreFrontPage" />">
                        set <actinic:variable name="PageTitle" /> = "The site title I want to put in"
                        </actinic:block>

                        I know the syntax is wrong but I hope you can see what I am driving at. Can anyone advise me of the correct syntax as I am not a programmer???

                          Simplify this Ken.

                          Two separate blocks

                          Code:
                          <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsStoreFrontPage%22%20%2f%3e%20%20%3d%3d%20true" >
                          	<title>My store front page title</title>
                          </actinic:block>
                          <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsStoreFrontPage%22%20%2f%3e%20%20%3d%3d%20false" >
                          	<title><actinic:variable name="PageTitle" /></title>
                          </actinic:block>
                          Condition can only be one or the other, not both, so you'll only get one or the other output.

                            You can't do a "else if" but remember blocks only appear when they are true so you can add a block to test if the homepage and another block testing if it is NOT the homepage (or if it is a section pages, cart pages etc etc)
