can't get it to work

Can't get it to work, either it's not working or I am not understanding that there is more needed to do. Is this a Drop in Module (Wham Bam, Enable?) or is this a Drop in Module (Now Break out the tools?) Is there more than just dropping it in to the Module folder, Enable, Configure = Your set to go? If it does require more, can you please explain the process a smigg more clearly. I do apologize if this sounds rude, I don't mean it too (I=No0ber).

I dont suppose you read the README.TXT which was provided in the modules folder did you?

http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/page_title/...

Basically, once the module is enabled you MUST go into your theme's template.php file and add the lines which set the $vars['head_title']. Unfortunately the head_title is one of the few things that isn't exposed very well.

You must add these lines inside the _phptemplate_variables function but ONLY when the $hook is 'page'... So your function MIGHT look something like this...

function _phptemplate_variables($hook, $vars) {
  if ($hook == 'page') {

    // These are the only important lines
    if (module_exists('page_title')) {
      $vars['head_title'] = page_title_page_get_title();
    }

  }
  return $vars;
}

If you guys are still having problems, please post back. The module DOES work - you just need to make sure you've read the instructions first ;-)

No probs - glad its working for you now :)

I don't see a _phptemplate_variables function. I do use the Bluemarine theme (come stock with Drupal 5.7), so I guess I'd be looking for bluemarine_variables but I don't see that either.

There is a page.tpl.php, node.tpl.php, comment.tpl.phph, box.tpl.php, block.tpl.php file. I assume we'd work with the page.tpl.php.

I do not see where in the code we copy and paste the

<?php
function _phptemplate_variables($hook, $vars) {
  if ($hook == 'page') {

    // These are the only important lines
    if (module_exists('page_title')) {
      $vars['head_title'] = page_title_page_get_title();
    }

  }
  return $vars;
}
?>

Unless we just stick it in the < title > < / title > section, I don't see where to put it.

@bigsend In the case where you don't have an existing _phptempate_variables() function you should add the entire code snippet from your comment (just leave out the ?php tags itself.

Add it... to where?...

To the template.php file.

Why I still can't get it to work after putting that code in template.php?

I'm using the Acquia Marina theme on D6.

Btw, is that code missing the line: $vars = array(); ?
