Custom Page Title Help

[gazpot0111645]

Hi Guys, So now what i would like to achieve is to change the title of my custom pages without it affecting the inner title of the page...does that make sense?

 

So for example i have created a page called counter-strike-go.php. Here is what it includes in the .php.

 

<?php

define("CLIENTAREA",true);

require("dbconnect.php");
require("includes/functions.php");
require("includes/clientareafunctions.php");

$pagetitle = 'Counter-Strike: Global Offensive';
$pageicon = "images/support/clientarea.gif";
$breadcrumbnav = '<a href="index.php">'.$_LANG['globalsystemname'].'</a>';
$breadcrumbnav .= ' > <a href="counter-strike-go.php">Counter Strike Global Offensive Game Server</a>'; 

initialiseClientArea($pagetitle,$pageicon,$breadcrumbnav);

if ($_SESSION['uid']) {
 # User is Logged In - put any code you like here
} 

# To assign variables in Smarty use the following syntax.
# This can then be used as {$variablename} in the template

$smartyvalues["variablename"] = $value; 

# Define the template filename to be used without the .tpl extension

$templatefile = "csgo"; 

outputClientArea($templatefile);

?>

 

So when i change the title to something more than just 'Counter-Strike: Global Offensive' it then becomes to much for the title on the page. As shown in the attachment.

 

 

Hope this all makes sense for you.

Regards

are you trying to turn the extra into dots "...." for the overflow or extend the black flag background?

Hi Gary,

 

I think it might be useful to read this documentation page - http://docs.whmcs.com/Creating_Pages

 

I don't think dbconnect.php should be used now, it's been replaced by init.php

 

also, you can define additional template variables, meaning that the text on the black ribbon won't necessarily have to be the same as the page title... that might require a little tweak to your template page though to use the new variable.

 

alternatively, you could modify your template to detect what page is calling it and display an appropriate size black ribbon graphic for the title.... or just resize it wider for every page (the quick way!).
