How to get rid of the "Welcome to...." part on the frontpage header

andrewwinkler

The Joomla menu browser page title displays exactly how I want. However, Jomsocial insists on putting the string "Welcome to -" in front, even though I
1. added the override " " for COM_COMMUNITY_FRONTPAGE
2. have no entry on the Site tab of the JomSocial backend.

Hi
The override will fix the issue for welcome to.
Can you confirm if you still have this problem?

It did not fix the problem.

Hi
I checked your site and noticed there is no override for the welcome to in language override.
I added it and now there is no page browser page title.
If you want to add a different title you can add it in the Menu option > page display > browser page title from Jomsocial.

So I had given you the wrong site details, but copied the override variable to the other site as well. The reason why I didn't work on the other site was that I had left out the "title" bit at the end of the variable name. With the complete variable name it worked. It still adds the " - ", so it now displays "Regional Knowledge Platform - - Mozilla Firefox"

Sorry, we have hidden the JomSocial frontpage really well.

Hi
One - is from Joomla after site title and another one is from the Mozila browser not from site.

None of the other sections produce a double dash in the header. Only the JomSocial frontpage does. The reason is that JomSocial insists on displaying the string "Welcome to (sitename) - " on the header. If I blank out the "Welcome to " part in a language override and leave the (sitename) field on the JS backend setting for (sitename) blank, Jomsocial inserts two spaces separated by a dash.

How can I stop that from happening without that customisation being lost in the next JS update?
Alternatively, how can I prevent the Joomla sitename from being included in the JS frontpage alone? That way I could use JS's "Welcome to ..." without having the sitename twice in the header.

Hi because there is no menu browser title you are getting this, You can add browser page title from Menu item options > Page displa y > browser page title.

The two dashes is one from the firefox you can see the browser name, check site in chrome to see difference.
And one dash is from Joomla itself.
The language override change will not be updated on Jomsocial updates.

The Joomla site name, configured to display before the pageheader, is "Regional Knowledge Platform".
The pageheader configured for the menu item is "Communities of Practice".
The sitename configured on the JS backend site settings tab is " ", as is the "community_frontpage_title" language override.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi
We fixed the problem on your site, i added community as title for test and its showing fine now.
All changes will be added in next update of the Jomsocial.
