Dynamic change to page title

[Chris]

Hmmm... just curious.

Is there any way to do something like this in the header.html template?

Code: [Select]

<title>{site_name}: {clickstream}</title>

Obviously this doesn't work as "clickstream" contains HTML tags.

WIthout modification, no. But you can register a additional template variable for each page. Just duplicate $clickstream and remove all html tags.

For example for categories.php:

Add to categories.php:

Code: [Select]

$clickstream2 = $config['site_name'].$config['category_separator'].get_category_path_nohtml($cat_id);

Than replace

Code: [Select]

"clickstream" => $clickstream
with

Code: [Select]

"clickstream" => $clickstream,
"clickstream2" => $clickstream2

You see the new function get_category_path_nohtml(). Just add the following code to "includes/functions.php:

Code: [Select]

function get_category_path_nohtml($cat_id = 0) {
  global $config, $cat_cache;
  $parent_id = 1;
  while ($parent_id) {
    if (!isset($cat_cache[$cat_id]['cat_parent_id'])) {
      return false;
    }
    $parent_id = $cat_cache[$cat_id]['cat_parent_id'];

    if (empty($path)) {
      $path = $cat_cache[$cat_id]['cat_name'];
    }
    else {
      $path = $cat_cache[$cat_id]['cat_name'].$config['category_separator'].$path;
    }
    $cat_id = $parent_id;
  } // end while
  return $path;
}

Hope this will help.

As always, your mod works perfectly.  I also added the {clickstream2} code to all php files that referenced {clickstream}.  

Now I get a descriptive page title on all my 4images pages.  This is so much more informative for the logs produced by my page logging and visitor tracking script.

Wow.  Thanks again.

was searching for the answer here, but couldnt find.
what is CLICKSTREAM? what does it do?

[Chris]

Clickstream generates what is sometimes commonly called "bread crumbs".  This shows you the route by which you navigated to where you are at the moment.  (Follow the trail of bread crumbs...?)

For an example, go here:  http://demo.4homepages.de/details.php?image_id=22

And you will see the clickstream is

Code: [Select]

Home / Objekte / AfriCola

Thanks too.
But can it be taken one step further, so that in details.php it shows the site name : category: image name ?

Also, I can't seem to get this to function on the index.php page.
The title now comes out with just the url instead of atleast the site title.

Thanks again,

[Chris]

Here's what I did.

It required updating nearly all the top-level 4images .php files.  But I'm now able to see the clickstream in the page titles of my visitor tracking and statistics script output.  As an example, I'm only going to show details.php:

Code: [Select]


//-----------------------------------------------------
//---Clickstream---------------------------------------
//-----------------------------------------------------
$clickstream = "<span class=\"clickstream\"><a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."index.php")."\" class=\"clickstream\">".$lang['home']."</a>".$config['category_separator'];
$clickstream_nohtml = $config['category_separator'].$lang['home'].$config['category_separator']; // <--- page title clickstream

if ($mode == "lightbox" && $in_mode) {
  $page_url = "";
  if (preg_match("/".URL_PAGE."=([0-9]+)/", $url, $regs)) {
    if (!empty($regs[1]) && $regs[1] != 1) {
      $page_url = "?".URL_PAGE."=".$regs[1];
    }
  }
  $clickstream .= "<a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."lightbox.php".$page_url)."\" class=\"clickstream\">".$lang['lightbox']."</a>".$config
['category_separator'];
  $clickstream_nohtml = $config['category_separator'].$lang['lightbox'].$config['category_separator']; // <--- page title clickstream
}
elseif ($mode == "search" && $in_mode) {
  $page_url = "";
  if (preg_match("/".URL_PAGE."=([0-9]+)/", $url, $regs)) {
    if (!empty($regs[1]) && $regs[1] != 1) {
      $page_url = "&amp;".URL_PAGE."=".$regs[1];
    }
  }
  $clickstream .= "<a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."search.php?show_result=1".$page_url)."\" class=\"clickstream\">".$lang['search']."</a
>".$config['category_separator'];
  $clickstream_nohtml = $config['category_separator'].$lang['search'].$config['category_separator']; // <--- page title clickstream
}
else {
  $clickstream .= get_category_path($cat_id, 1).$config['category_separator'];
  $clickstream_nohtml = $config['category_separator'].get_category_path_nohtml($cat_id).$config['category_separator']; // <--- page title clickstream
}
$clickstream .= $image_name."</span>";
$clickstream_nohtml .= $image_name; // <--- page title clickstream

//-----------------------------------------------------
//--- Print Out ---------------------------------------
//-----------------------------------------------------
$site_template->register_vars(array(
  "msg" => $msg,
  "clickstream" => $clickstream,
  "clickstream_nohtml" => $clickstream_nohtml, // <--- page title clickstream
  "lang_category" => $lang['category'],
  "lang_added_by" => $lang['added_by'],
  "lang_description" => $lang['description'],
  "lang_keywords" => $lang['keywords'],
  "lang_date" => $lang['date'],
  "lang_hits" => $lang['hits'],
  "lang_downloads" => $lang['downloads'],
  "lang_rating" => $lang['rating'],
  "lang_votes" => $lang['votes'],
  "lang_author" => $lang['author'],
  "lang_comment" => $lang['comment'],
  "lang_prev_image" => $lang['prev_image'],
  "lang_next_image" => $lang['next_image'],
  "lang_file_size" => $lang['file_size']
));

This allows me to use:

Code: [Select]

<title>{site_name} {clickstream_nohtml}</title>
in my header.html template.
