I would like to see the site name appear before the home icon on the toolbar.

I would like to add the following somewhere in the module
'<div id=sitename >' . variable_get('site_name', 'drupal') . '</div>'

Where is a sensible place to put this?

Could this be an option in the configuration?

What's the use-case for that? I can't really make sense of the idea.

I have already hacked the module to have this option but I know my hack is not the best way to do it. So your advice on the best way to get the site name in the top left corner within the toolbar would be appreciated.

I admin a lot of different sites. In the middle of editing several sites I have found myself sometimes editing the wrong one. The site name in the toolbar seems to catch this better than the URL for some reason.

It may be useful to others as well so the suggestion for a configuration option. Also the option to choose either Site Name or Domain Name. i.e. My Site Forum or forum.mysite.com

Maybe we can add an option right after home-icon where the developer can choose between:

  • Home
  • Site Name
  • Domain Name

But I have a question about do we really need it? I will let this issue open a while and see what the Drupal community prefer. :)

Personally, I don't think this particular feature request would be utilized very much by the larger community so I'm taking the liberty to close. Please feel free to re-open if anyone thinks otherwise.
