Title not showing on front static page
On a blog I'm working on, it has a static front page and the Title is showing as Mozilla Firefox and the tab title just shows the site URL "http://www.myklogica.es". The rest of the pages are behaving correctly.
The title should be showing the name of the company Myklogica etc.
I've tried a fix to the header.php file I found, but it didn't work.
Any ideas? Thanks.
You need to check your header.php and make sure your <title></title> looks like this:
It looks like all the other posts/pages don't have titles in the browser title bar.PHP Code:<title><?php if (is_single() || is_page() || is_archive()) { wp_title('',true); } else { bloginfo('name'); echo(' — '); bloginfo('description'); } ?></title>

It's just affecting the front page now. I now have the title code reference above in the header.php page. Don't know what conflict is causing it to happen.
Thanks.
Hmmm that's really odd. Could you try changing the code in the <title></title> tags to just this:
Also try:PHP Code:<?php bloginfo('name'); echo(' — '); bloginfo('description'); ?>
There may be some file overriding it but I can't figure out what without looking at alll of your files.PHP Code:<?php if (is_single() || is_page() || is_archive() || is_home()) { wp_title('',true); } else { bloginfo('name'); echo(' — '); bloginfo('description'); } ?>
That didn't seem to work. It took out the titles in all the pages and even added the title within the page at the top.
If it helps, here is the code in the header.php file:
Thanks for looking!Code:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" /> <title><?php if (is_single() || is_page() || is_archive()) { wp_title('',true); } else { bloginfo('name'); echo(' — '); bloginfo('description'); } ?></title> <meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> <!-- leave this for stats --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/custom.css" type="text/css" media="screen" /> <!--[if lte IE 7]> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/ie7.css" media="screen" /> <![endif]--> <!--[if lte IE 6]> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/ie6.css" media="screen" /> <![endif]--> <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" /> <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" /> <?php if ( is_singular() ) { wp_enqueue_script( 'comment-reply' ); } ?> <?php wp_head(); ?> </head> <body class="custom"> <div id="container"> <div id="masthead"> <h1><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1> <h3><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></h3> </div> <ul id="nav"> <li <?php if (is_home()) echo('class="current_page_item" '); ?>></li> <?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&title_li='); ?> <!-- <li class="rss"><a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>">RSS</a></li> --> </ul> <div id="header_img"> <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/cabecera_1.png" width="770px" height="140px" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> header" /> </div>
Do you think something in the header image (which I changed) could be affecting it?
I hate to have the client's site up running without a proper title on the home page, so I appreciate your help!Code:<div id="header_img"> <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/cabecera_1.png" width="770px" height="140px" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> header" /> </div>
Thanks.
I poured through every php file, and the only file that has any changes is the header.php file.
From this original line of code:
I removed this part:Code:<li <?php if (is_home()) echo('class="current_page_item" '); ?>><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">front page</a></li>
because it was causing an additional item in my menu bar to appear entitled "front page" and it was being placed in the home position (so basically I had two homes).Code:<a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">front page</a></li>
Perhaps this is causing the title to disappear? If I shouldn't remove that line of code, how do I keep the Front Page from appearing?
Please help, anyone?
Thanks.
Try this in between <title></title>:
Also, please tell me what page you used on your front page and if it has a title. You may have left a blank title for your post somewhere.PHP Code:<?php wp_title(''); if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' –'; } bloginfo('name'); ?>
Sorry, this is really messing with my head too
Excellent! That seemed to do the trick so far!!!
Thanks so much.
Whew that's good to hear!
