pnTitle Hack for .750  Bottom

  • Has anyone made a pnTitle Hack for .750? (using the .750 header file)

    thanks
  • Do you mean Xanthia? I've got pnTitle Hack working just fine with .750.

  • Yes, I've seen mention of it on the author's site, plus I've got a modified Xanthia plugin version.

    You can find it incorporated into NukeWrapper, from the download link below, what you're after is just the Xanthia plugin, found in the package at
    modules/Xanthia/plugins/function.title.php and
    includes/pnTitle.php
    and you'd probably want the modified header.php file for PN0.75 (for any "classic" themes).
    There's the added functionality that when no titlefile is found for a module, it puts the name of the current module in front of the usual title. Unless it's NukeWrapper, in which case it uses the metatags and title of the wrapped file.
    Since the plugin is a modified version of the existing Title plugin, you shouldn't have to edit your Xanthia templates, however the instruction for editing them for NukeWrapper is found here:
    Xanthia themes and the Titlehack

  • I might have needed to be more specific and I apologize for not doing so. I had found some references to Xanthia but I am using AutoTheme. Does that make a difference? I know enough about PHP to be extremely dangerous. I know among other things, .750 has removed global references and it appears that is one of the differences between .726 and .750 header files.

    I had the pnMeta/pnTitle hack combination promoted by MirageLab and wanted to get that back up and working after upgrading to .750.

    Thanks!
  • I'm not sure if AutoTheme use the header file, but if you used AutoTheme previously with PN0.76, and you did nothing to the templates there, then simply using the modified PN0.75 header.php file I mentioned above, or a similar one from elsewhere, should do the trick. Back up the original first. It doesn't incorporate pnMeta though. I didn't find it worth using, as much of the stuff in Admin doesn't actually do anything, it's not "connected" yet, or at least not when I looked at it. The developer got sidetracked developing the pnRender engine for PostNuke before he could finish it.
  • Thank you so much for your help!

    Should have mentioned that pnMeta was working great for me using .726. It worked as advertised. I don't have it hooked up yet after upgrading to .750 so I can't comment now. But AutoTheme now includes pretty much the same functionality so I may not need it as long as I can get the pnTitle hack to work.

    Thanks again for your help.
