How to get blog post title in HTML title tag

[PESTLEWeb England]

Guys,

I am really pleased with Blogofile. I feel it is giving me really good results that I am very happy with (See here for example:do-you-know-judo? ).

So thank you to the developers for that!

I see that the question about getting the blog post title in the HTML title tags has been asked before - but I can't find the answer anywhere.

Could somebody help please?

Thanks

Rob

I haven't tested this, but off the top of my head I'd say that you need to modify _templates/head.mako. What happens if you replace <title>${bf.config.blog.name}</title> with <title>${post.title}</title>?

 

Thanks

Sorry - that gives the error string below (several times - I have only copied it here once.

I checked - and all of my posts do have a "title: xxxx" in the identification section at the top. Something like this...

This is bombing because it's trying to render a non-post page and
doesn't know about posts. Same thing happened to me. Here's what I
put in my head.mako:

% if post is not UNDEFINED:
<title>${bf.config.blog.name}: ${post.title}</title>
% elif category is not UNDEFINED:
<title>${bf.config.blog.name}: ${category}</title>
% else:
<title>${bf.config.blog.name}</title>
% endif

This way I can use the same head.mako across my site.

Mike,

Thank you! Worked perfectly!

I think I like blogofile more and more....I was half expecting this to be a difficult fix. However, once explained it is relatively easy. (They do say that 'experience' is that thing which you have just after you needed it!! )
