How to remove shop name from title | Prestashop v1.4.9

[snekpeg]

Hello,

 

I'm trying to remove the shop name from my title but it doesn't work when I follow all the topics about this subject.

 

I've tried the override function with Meta.php but nothing happens when I create this file.

 

And I've tried to edit the Tools.php file but I'm getting an error when I edit this file.

 

So does anybody know how to remove the shop name from my titles in Prestashop V1.4.9?

 

Thanks!

Simply go on back-office to your tools -> cms and edit there the metas from index.php.

Thank you for your fast answer. But Prestashop automatically add the shop name:

 

I have it like this:

 

Meta title: Title

 

But it shows this in the code:

 

Title - shop name

 

The text after Title is created automatically. I can't remove it there right?

Anyone?

you can use our override for that: http://mypresta.eu/e...meta-title.html

i know that this is for version 1.5.2 but in 1.4.9 it is very similar.

 

just follow the instructions

 

if it wont work, please contact with me and i will prepare for you .tpl file modification

(which will always work - no matter which version of ps you use)

This is solved by Vekia:

 

Find the file: header.tpl in your theme and open it

 

Replace this:

<title>{$meta_title|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</title>

 

With:

{assign var=shop_name_to_trim value=" - $shop_name"}

<title>{$meta_title|replace:$shop_name_to_trim:''|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</title>

 

turn on force compilation in back office preferences -> performance

 

Turn force compilation only one time on - then refresh shop page to "recompile" - and after that, you can turn force compile off.

 

And it's done!

Is there a way to do this for the homepage only? And not affect all the other pages with shop name? (1.6)

[vekia]

ohh you already posted that

sorry i missed your reply here

 

okay, so simply to modify it only for homepage use this code:

{if $page_name == 'index'}
{assign var=shop_name_to_trim value=" - $shop_name"}
<title>{$meta_title|replace:$shop_name_to_trim:''|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</title>
{else}
<title>{$meta_title|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</title>
{/if}
