Solved Alternative Page Title for categories

My client needs basically 2 different titles, one for the url/breadcrumbs and one for the page heading that is longer.

I have the items done as he wishes using the SEO Custom <title> feature:
web-designer-developer.com/Regga ... Itemid=164

I would like to use the Metadata-Alternative Page Title in the same way (not every category is included in the menus) and followed the instructions here:
<!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href=" www.flexicontent.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=5003 ">viewtopic.php?f=21&t=5003
but they did not work for me.

I am using FLEXIcontent version 2.1.3 r1857
Joomla Version 3.2.3

Thanks for any ideas on how to accomplish this.

Hello

i like this idea to be able to have use category title in the pathway (breadcumbs module) and at the same time define an longer alternative title to be display as title of the category view

just it needs some extra-logic to combine this with the page header menu parameter and also suppress printing the category title in existing templates


backup and try replacing file

components/com_flexicontent/views/category/view.html.php

with this:
[attachment=0:20g4raua]<!-- ia0 -->view.html.zip<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:20g4raua]

and test, (we have tested)

after you test too , will commit this for next release

Regards

While clicking around the site with this new code, I can see it offers better results than before, however, this page in particular

web-designer-developer.com/Regga ... Itemid=175

I have "Rastafari" as the category title and "About Rastafari" listed within the "Alternative Page Title" and it would be nice if that was above the description.

Hello

it works without the menu item id:

web-designer-developer.com/Regga ... :rastafari

can you check if you have set a custom page heading in the menu item no: 175 ??

if so please remove it

I wonder if I had failed to clear my cache, because yes, It works great ! Thank you so much.

You can see this site will be very large when finished and the recent version release that helped with speed is a definite improvement.

This is my first Flexicontent site and so far I am very happy with it compared to many of the CCKs I have tried, since, well...it is so flexible. Thanks for the great work.

Hello

you speak of which version ?
v2.1.2 r1806 ?
v2.1.3 r1857 ?

upcoming version v2.2.0 brings huge speedup in large sites (in categories with a lot of content >5000 items), multiple time faster than -current- version of Joomla

the above applies on
- category view
- universal module
- backend items manager
- TODO maybe in FACETED filtering too

and several other performance improvements (e.g. post-installation tasks on large web-sites !! >20,000 items)
